#417: Vifon Tứ Quý Mì Bò Cay Spicy Beef Flavor Instant Noodle

Some spicy beef this morning for breakfast. Really hoping its good stuff! I guess we’ll see.

Seasoned oil on left, powder seasoning on right. I figure the spicy is in the oil.

Bring on the noodles!

With two eggs, fried and topped with a little Lindberg-Snider Red Baron Barbecue Seasoning. Good stuff. The broth was tasty – slightly spicy and had an almost braised beef flavor to it. The noodles had good character too. Even with thde oil packet, this one wasn’t super greasy. All in all a tasty breakfast! 3.5 out of 5.0 stars.

AAAAAAHHH! Vifon!!!

This was found when I searched for “mystery booger.”

#408: Gomex 3 Mien Gomex 3 Miến Mì Tôm Chua Cay Hot Sour Shrimp Instant Noodles

So here’s the second of the Gomex noodles. I’ve never seen them other than the two I’ve rated – pretty interesting. They’re from Vietnam and sound interesting, so let’s give em’ a try…

Some powder and some seasoned oil – rather murky…

Oh yeah this one looks a little funky. Spicy and sour shrimp sounds good though.

I dropped an egg in with the boiling noodles. So here we are. The noodles took on the broth’s flavor, which was a little on the odd side. It’s almost kind of sweet, but spicy and salty too. I don’t really detect a really shrimp-like flavor here. It’s edible but not great. 2.25 out of 5.0 stars.

Here’s a commercial for these…

…and here’s my 3 minute noodle timer I made. Just cover your Cup o Noodle and hit play. when it’s done – bam! You’ve got a cooked Cup o Noodles!
