Instant Ramen Review: Shin Ramyun

04192010016



A while back, my manager had introduced me to these instant bowls of goodness.  I was somewhat skeptical at first(being that he was a caucasian male born and raised in Maryland) but, I realized that if my manager was from the mainland and he enjoyed something he is not used to eating, it must be good.  I remember the first time I indulged into a "Shin bowl," it was amazing.  I remember enduring the burns on the roof of my mouth and the large amounts of sweat, just to enjoy the taste of the next bite.  I must give one warning though, if you are sensitive to spicy foods, DO NOT try it.

The Shin Ramyun can be found in a variety of different packages to include a shin bowl, a shin big bowl and the typical instant "brick".  It is produced by the Korean company Nong Shim, which also manufactures other instant  bowl noodles however, the shin bowl remains to be the company flagship.

You can find all three varieties at your local supermarket and the bowl version is available at the Kapiolani community college cafeteria.  They tend to cost around 1-2 dollars and are great for fitting a meal into an already tight schedule.  If you have the time (or dont) you should definitely check this spicy bowl of noodles for a quick snack.
