Definitely Indomie. Indomie Ayam Spesial (Chicken Special) can be eaten like what the instructions said, or, you can add almost any ingredients to make it better.
My favorite is Indomie Ayam Special with choy sum /cai xin and a beaten egg mixed with canned sardines.

Maruchan. Top Ramen noodles have an inferior consistency.

For the actual stovetop? Maruchan.
For the "In-a-Cup" variety? Nissin.
But what I really want is Nongshim Shin Black.
This guy noodles

Only brand I've ever had is Oodles of Noodles, and I don't even know if they still make that.

I like Shin Ramyun for sure, just more expensive. Samyang 2X Buldak is my favorite, spicy though.
🥵Try Buldak Stew flavor, it's pretty tasty and more like ramen soup than stir fried noodles.

Interesting I'll keep an eye out for it, thanks.

If you can find it, look for the Indonesian version of ramen from Indomie. In my opinion, so much better - it actually has other flavors than salt!
Agree. These are baller.

Shin black is so far above everything else it's almost embarrassing. Only other ramen thay I sometimes crave is the Nissin black garlic tonkatsu.

top ramen? definitely the top ramen in my "won't ever buy" list
It's cheap noodles! And 5mg of chicken bouillon. Mix it with a splash of soy, fish sauce, 5ml sambal olek, and 30mg of peanut butter for a simple peanut noodle that feeds one in 5 minutes quite cheap. Use take out soy sauce packets (one packet) and a fast food hot sauce sachet instead of sambal for an even cheaper meal option.
If ever you need a fast and cheap option to start a meal idea, Top Ramen should be at the top of the list.

Maruchan hands down. Nissin tastes like they skimp on seasonings.

I don’t buy that though. Wife and I ate a LOT of ramen in university. Now our kids love it and we buy entire cases at a time for them. I still like it every now and again, it’s nostalgic. For the record we’re WAY better off now than when dirt poor in university.
Do you buy nicer ramen? There are some pretty tasty options now.

Go to your local Asian market and they will have a very wide selection of instant noodles that are much better than either of these.
Also grab some LaoGanMa Spicy Chili Crisp to put in it, you can thank me later.
I can't seem to find plain noodles that taste as good as the noodles that come in these little packets. Do you have a brand or type you'd recommend?

wrote last edited by [email protected]As far as instant ramen is concerned, I prefer that black Korean stuff that tastes like hoisin sauce and green onion (forgot what it's called but you know the one).
But between these two, I like Maruchan's slightly thinner noodles better. The chicken flavor is comfort food that takes me back to childhood. The chili lime with shrimp flavor is fire too.
