This instant ramen has a straightforward chicken bouillon flavor that is very similar to a classic chicken noodle soup. It’s comforting and nostalgic, and the broth is a little on the thinner side.

If you’re looking for a creamy mouthfeel, you might find this one a bit lacking straight out of the package. However, the “Roast” element does add a slightly deeper savory note than the standard chicken packet.
We both agreed that while the noodles are great in a pinch, they tend to get soggy if they sit too long.
To level up this simple ramen, I’d add some deli meat for an easy protein. Any type of vegetable would also help to sweeten the broth slightly.

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.
