I never had this flavor Maruchan growing up. It was just always the regular chicken or beef. And I feel like I was missing out a little bit! It offers the comforting chicken flavor but with a rich, creaminess that I enjoy.
Produced in the United States. Distributed by Japan.
The creaminess is so strong that you can smell it. I suspect it’s the noticeable powdered milk concentrate flavor. And I taste either oregano or some type of Italian seasoning going on, which gives it a unique flavor.
To enhance this creamy bowl, adding some shredded cheese and rotisserie chicken would be a great addition. I would also like some spice to it, so a dash of Tabasco would be perfect to introduce some heat.

Frequently Asked Questions
For the spice level, my friend James, who taste tests the ramens with me, gives his rating out of 5 based on his experience with the heat. My own spice tolerance tends to be higher than most, so James’s rating gives a more general sense of the spiciness. Keep in mind that spice is still subjective, so what’s mild for him might be spicy for you, and vice versa!
That’s how thick or thin the broth is. A 1/5 would be very watery, while a 5/5 would be super thick and almost syrupy.
This is just a general gauge of how thick the noodles are compared to other instant ramen noodles I’ve tried. A 1/5 would be very thin, like vermicelli, and a 5/5 would be very thick and wide.
Here, I’m just describing the style or texture of the noodles, like “udon-like” for a chewy and thick noodle, or “thin and curly” for a more classic instant ramen style.

This ramen is a childhood food of mine. It’s actually pretty good, although I remember it tasting better when I was a kid. The noodles aren’t going to be very springy like Korean ramyeon. They’re a bit soft, more like what you’d expect from this cheaper brand of ramen. The taste is a little creamy and salty with a slight chicken bouillon flavor. I recommend adding some cheese and an egg. Sometimes I’d put broccoli if I was feeling fancy~ enjoy friends!
it’s okay, probably the best maruchan flavor
It’s definitely not creamy chicken, unless you add it yourself. More like a watery soup.
