Ramen Review #13: Doll Instant Ramen: Chicken Flavour

It is funny how this brand is actually called Doll. In Cantonese instant ramen is called tsik sik mien, which translates literally to instant eatable noodles. I grew up calling any kind of instant noodles kong tsai mien, which translates to doll noodles. I think this is related to Nissin having a little boy holding a delivery box with ramen in it, as kong tsai can also be translated as a drawn figure.  But today there will be no good old Nissin ramen.

Ramen Review #12: Nissin Demae Ramen Spicy Flavour

I apologize for having even worse quality photos than usual. My phone broke and it is getting repaired, but won't be back for awhile. Very upsetting.

Ramen Review #11: Saimin Chicken Flavour

It is time for something different. Something new, something frog has never eaten before!

Apple Cinnamon Cupcakes

The sudden craving for cake hit me at 10 pm today and who am I to turn down a cake craving? So I set out to make a cupcake that is light, but has a dense crumb and then I opened my fridge for the butter and found apples. Apples do not show up often in my fridge and these were bought for the tuna salad I made earlier. Someday I will share with you all the recipe of my favourite tuna salad, but today there will be cake.

Ramen Review #10: Nissin Demae Ramen: XO Seafood Flavour

Today I had the urge to try this ramen flavour. Sometimes I have a craving for a certain flavour and today the the flavour of XO sauce fit my craving perfectly.

Mushroom and chicken rice

I remember I went to KFC once with my grandparents. I think I was 8 years old and on vacation in Hong Kong. The whole trip has mostly faded away from my memories, but I remember that meal in particular, because of two things: the chicken was served in plastic baskets and there was a side dish of rice topped with mushrooms in a gravy like sauce. I remember it was very tasty, but that is probably nostalgia speaking.

Ramen Review #9: Master Kong's Beef Ramen

 Frog is very excited to write this review! Of all the Master Kong's Ramen flavours I like this one the most. Master Kong has other kinds of instant ramen, but in this particular line of ramen there are only three flavours: pork ribs, spicy beef and normal beef. I have tasted and reviewed the other two and those two are good, but this one is definitely my favourite.
