Prima Taste Chili Crab Flavored La Mian in packaging

These noodles are a bit pricier than other instant noodles, but well worth it with the flavor that it delivers. I prefer their curry flavor more, but this is still a solid option.

Produced in Singapore.

There’s a strong crab flavor with a bit of sweetness. The spice is there but just a small bite that’s overpowered by the crab flavor. The noodles are spaghetti-like and they do a good job with picking up the sauce. It has a solid foundation that could be easily enhanced with a few simple additions.

Noodle brick and 2 seasoning packets

I would level this up with a crispy fried egg, some fresh chopped up Thai chilies, and some more crab would be great even if it’s just canned crabmeat.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine the spice level?

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!

What does “Broth Viscosity” mean?

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.

How do you rate “Noodle Thickness”?

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.

What do you mean by “Noodle Type”?

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.
