The description

The Kobe Bussan's "Tom Yum Kung Noodles Shrimp Flavor" is an instant noodle that lets you easily enjoy the taste and flavor of traditional Thai tom yum kung. 




The good

The soup is creamy and rich with shrimp flavor and spices such as coriander and cumin. It has moderate spiciness and sourness and is known for its addictive taste. The noodles are thin, which goes well with the soup, and the cooking time is short. It has a strong shrimp and seafood flavor, typical of authentic Tom Yum soup. This product is very much suitable for those looking for a more authentic Thai flavor experience. I really enjoy the balanced notes of sourness and spiciness with a hint of creaminess.


The not so good

Some may say that the spice level is milder than traditional Tom Yum recipes and I prefer it this way. The level of spiciness is just perfect for me. The texture of the noodles is praised for being firm enough to hold the soup well without getting soggy. I would say that adding seafood or vegetables like mushrooms elevates the dish for a heartier meal. It is a budget-friendly, convenient instant noodle with a unique Tom Yum flavor. It’s a good introduction to the famous Thai soup, but spice lovers may need to tweak it for a bolder kick.
