Ichiran and Ippudo Ramen are some of my favorite Japanese Ramen Chains. This time I'm going to compare the 2 Instant noodle version of these Ramen restaurants along with a mix of other instant noodles I found at the local Japanese grocery store.

The way Mikey describes food literally makes anything sound good lol like this is legit just 2 minute noodles
Yeah but sometimes instant noodles can taste better than actual restaurant noodles... If you watch the videos you know he expresses when something tastes bad
you obviously haven't tried other japanese instant noodles, some literally taste like it came out fresh from a ramen restaurant
asian instant noodles are on a different level and people do not see them as a povo meal
Have you tried good instant noodles? They're heavenly. I they weren't so calorific and sodium heavy, I would eat them all the time
@@keihan26 I go back to Japan every year :) point was that mikey is very good at commentating about food not that the 2 minute noodles didn't actually taste good
Mike with his future kids:
Good job, here's your piece of pork and hot oil.
how else you reward your kids?
Strictly Dumpling hot oil training haha
Lol seems legit lol I like it
😂

Al Cipta uhhh
I don’t wanna answer that question
I don’t wanna help you sleep
Stick... A wooden stick
Al Cipta ur a creep bro
Al Cipta what’s wrong with u?
@Al Cipta ok buddy
yes, I also watched the video.
My anxiety was heightened watching Mike get the ice cream first instead of last lol
"I wasn't planning on it, but once you see it, you have to get it"
Literally all of Mike's shopping trips
Isn't that just about everyone's shopping experience? xD
Girl: Let's spice things up a little bit...
Mike: Some hot oil would do the trick!!!
Haha underated comment
* pours hot oil on condom *
@@Stranger-yp7tp * dips pp in broth *
A M LMAO 😂
Mikey just avert your eyes and move on
Mike is such a good judge of noodles, cause he's literally had them everywhere in the world.
Mike's wife one day: honey we need to spice it up
Mike: 🌝 *throws hot oil at her"
Lmao
Imagine not writing an original comment
Brenan - Gaming just a comment.. not a 5 acres land bruh chill
@@idonthavethink3177 🤣 right ?
> if a someone you didn’t know sends you a link to a website saying...
“look at what they did to your photos...”
> you click on the link and it takes you to an odd looking, realistic google website and it tells you to put your username and password.
what will you do next??
Me: Watchin this at 2:00 am
Stomach: So you have chosen death...
Where do u live?????
Its 10 pm in the uk
Me too😆😆; It’s 2:34am now!!
It’s 4:13pm where I am
Watching this at night aswell but I got food poisoning yday and anything I eat, comes back out in a matter of minutes 😭 im starving and torturing myself watching this but the food just looks 😍
omae wa moo shindeiru
I swear, Mikey’s gonna come out with his own brand of hot oil and it’s gonna fly off the shelves...
He's already is trying to get it into production he has a video about it
well, *grabs savings*
0.o I'll take your entire stock!!!!
This comment aged very well
Oh he did and it's amazing
I've tried that "Ocean's Halo" brand stuff before. I completely agree. That's the food you give to your girlfriend when you don't want to see them anymore.
Same, I had the tonkatsu Ocean's Halo ramen and it was so bad I tossed it out after two bites without finishing. It tasted like it had no salt and it had a strong bitter flavor.
lmao nice suggestion
Instant PTSD As soon as i saw you grab that “tonkotsu” vegan ramen.
Lol yeah I had the same reaction. I forced myself to forget about those garbage noodles but when I saw them on this video I remembered the pain 😭
Americans: Ugh, I hate rainy days!
Strictly Dumpling: This is a great day for an amazing broth!
I'm one of the few American's that love rainy days, stormy weather, and snow with a passion! Everyone else runs away at the gentlest sprinkle! lol
Rowan Elessar weirdo
Look its raining! puts on Jogging gear.
Rowan Elessar when was there ever a stereotype that americans hate rain?
Mikey IS American...
I wanna see the daily workout routine cuz this ain’t adding up
Haha!
Once his metabolism slows down our boy Mikey gonna be a chungus humongous, trust.
He's done plenty videos on that. He runs like 5 miles every morning or something and then weight lifts before ending the day.
Amey G4B4 No offence, but ramen doesn’t really offer much protein
@@Galactic123 Nah. He exercises an insane amount, and he has said that off camera he eats very little and healthfully. His muscles naturally burn more calories as well. Lean muscle increases the amount of base calories you burn each day.
“there’s some wasabi in the mayo!!” *package literally says mustard*
I’ve had the ramen and it def tastes more wasabi than mustard lol
I can't believe Mikey made me want to spend $12 on a bowl of instant ramen.
I didn't catch the name!
@@jenninva1 Ippudo, or Hakata Ippudo
Me : watches all kinds of ramen videos in youtube.
Also me : got access to nothing but maagi instant noodles.(veg)
Amazon, Joseph? Maybe?
Maggie is a joke compared to these 🤣 that's all we have
Lol me too
Bruh I only get the fire ramen
Herebin south africa we also have maggie 2minet noodels that shit aint ramen but i do have a mini. China town down the road go get all my noodels ther e my wife favoret ir korean 2x spice noodles
“When a good instant noodle is good, I reward it with pork, like my parents did to me!” Lol Mikey you’re so damn adorable 😇
I would love if you made a list in your description of the ones you loved so we could try them. Thanks!
Here I was back in college eating ramen straight from the package. Then I learned to throw everything but the kitchen sink in it. Making egg drop, veggie, thin cut chicken, fish,etc. It’s such a versatile dish that can please just about anyone.
Can you start showing the receipt on your grocery bill? I want to know how much you spend.
The moment he picked up the Ocean's Halo ramen box, I flinched. Had it from Walmart once and instantly regretted it. Have not come across a good thing from them and couldn't finish the bowl despite all the Christian-raised guilt. No amount of "THERE ARE CHILDREN STARVING" rhetoric could get me to do it, sorry mom. Please don't become an ash wraith to haunt me.
The joy that comes from his voice about all the food he sees and the tastes of each individual item is wat makes my days.
Mike, I hope you read this.😊 My grandma came from Taiwan many decades ago to visit us in Bellevue. Grandma didn’t know any English, so we had to come up with creative ideas to teach grandma some English words like “Uwajimaya”. So grandma would say she wants to go to 我的媽呀 then we know she meant Uwajimaya.😂
Nexttime in japan look in 7/11 for Nakiryu instant noodles, they are from a 1 star michelin ramen restaurant.
I think he had it in one of his Japanese 7-eleven videos. He has lots of them by now so idk which exact one lol but I agree with you. Nakiryu is actually I ask people to bring back for me whenever they're on a trip to Japan.
hehehe had to like your comment since I see your name come up from time to time watching Sumo :p
@@Snowkitty1424 Hello my fellow sumo fan, always nice to meet people with the same interest. Finally we will have a basho this month.
What a small world youtube can be.
Wow if we had a supermarket like this I'd be in there for a week ❤️
Please do more of these. I love watching you rate the instant noods
'Is this expired?', I know Mike doesn't meant to roast that vegan-tonkatsu so hard, but omgg that burns 😂
This is what I learned from Mikey
*Splash = 1 table spoon*
*Hint = 5 table spoons*
Watching Mikey eat a bunch of delicious looking instant noodles while I eat my sour and spicy sweet potato noodles with home made beef and shiitake mushroom broth, homemade hot oil, and a side of kimchi and some marinated beef I made myself.
I am so so happy right now
Myojo yakisoba is one of my favorites for years now and I'm so happy to see that Mikey has legit taste buds and gave it a glowing review. I really wanna try the $1× instant noodles
there’s something strangely comforting about a hot cup of 33 cent cup noodles idk lol
right...
I knew it! I pick up the Super Big Ramen every time I go to Uwajimaya and the noodle texture is surprising. I tried it initially because it was on sale for like $1 a bowl. One of my favorites for the price point.
This is the first time I've ever since Mike spit out food. That vegan ramen must have been ungodly terrible DX
Poor Mike...
Lol it is, I would say to burn those noodles with fire if you ever see them but the fire my spit them out. The secret ingredient must be bleach or embalming fluid. They are that gross.
Definitely the worst brand of instant noodles I've ever had.
I don't trust anything that has the word vegan on it, especially ramen and burger.
12:50 That Myojo Ippeichan Yakisoba instant noodle thing is my all-time favorite instant noodle. There's another flavor of it that is a little lighter but really good too. I could eat these every day.
My gosh. This brought me so much happiness. I caught myself literally smiling.
Lol the "It smells like nothing" description of the vegan tonkotsu.
Good timing! I was just rewatching your Osaka Japan food tour vid💜
Você é tão linda 😘😍😘🤝 14997254794
I'm going back and watching all your older videos I haven't seen Mike! Thank you for the content. :)
Thank you so much for doing this. I was generally curious about some of the choices you purchased and didn't want to spend money on instant ramen I may not like. I wish I could try that Ippudo ramen but unfortunately I don't live in an area with such a wide range of Asian choices like you do. I was really looking forward to this type of video. I hope you continue to do compare and contrast to a wide-range of similar instant foods so we, as a viewers, can get a general idea of what they may taste like.
8:55 Mikey doing his best imitation of a peter parker dance
Like who needs a kitchen when you got Japanese stores providing you with these amazing things 😍😍😊❤️
The Nissin Curry cup ramen is soooo good!! I always get that one at the store. Also if you like fish, there is a Seafood one with little pieces of re-hydrated calamari, fish, scrambled eggs, green onions, and cabbage - the sauce is thick on it as well just like the Curry one. Good stuff!
I really love these instant ramen videos. I cant wait for the grocery store haul video. If i were to go shopping i would have bought the whole store i don't know how u have such strength not to buy everything!!!! Im so going to my local asian supermarket right now!!!
When I heard my notification go off, I said to myself "If this isn't for a Mikey Chen vid, I'm gonna throw my phone into the wall."
I'm watching this on my phone. Thank the maker for Mikey Chen vids.
Omg!!! Mike has met his sodium content for the year :)
I feel like mikeys catch phrase is “MUCHHHH better with the hot oil!”
Hey Mike, love the videos! Been binge watching your videos during quarantine, and I, personally, feel like the sound is a bit soft. Sometimes I switch between other youtube videos and I have to keep lowering the volume after I watch yours. But other than that, keep up the good work and stay safe!
Is there a “much better with hot oil” shirt?
I had that yakisoba with mustard mayonnaise recently for lunch while at work, and I agree with mikey's reaction. It was great, slight hints of wasabi and creamy mayo.
The cup noodle curry and the mayo mustard noodles are my faves. Thank you for sharing with us boss!!
These r the best videos esp. during quarantine!
When you were dancing you reminded me of Peter Parker from Spider-Man 3 😂
😂😂😂😂
I think that's an insult
Noodle time!
The noodles that come with the mayonnaise are my all-time favorites! It was a secret. Now they're going to be even harder to get :)
I am loving these lockdown stay at home videos!!!!
Great video as always Mike! 😄
Glad you liked the yakisoba one, I love that one a ton myself.
The Ippudo instant noodles are supposed to taste pretty close to what they serve in the restaurant because that was the selling point when the Seven-Eleven convenience store developed the product in joint with the ramen restaurant. They wanted to create instant ramen products that taste like the real thing in the restaurants.
Just stumbled across your page at 2AM love this video and am currently binging these vids
omg the yakisoba with mayo package is my favorite Japanese cup noodle I love it!!
When we lived in Kirkland, we went to Uwajimaya all of the time. Awesome. Loved living in the Pugit Sound area.
Living the life through Mikey 🔥
I ate my dinner JUST before I started watching this. Full, satisfied, couldn’t eat another bite!
My good idea was foiled!! I’m just half way in and I’m drooling.
I’m glad you like the Yakisoba noodle, that’s my absolute fave!!
I’m glad you love Uwajimaya! The one in the international district has a food court and a Japanese book store. It’s basically heaven.
Best food vlogger Mikey Chen ❤️
“If you get caught at customs, they will take this from you because of the pork inside”
*confiscates Mikey on his flight back from Japan after scanning him and finding mountains of chashu in his stomach*
Its strange seeing my own pfp. I briefly thought I had commented on this video before then realised this was the first time I watched the video so it couldn't be possible. First time I've seen someone else use it which is surprised and also yes
Your Japan vids are the best. This is what i sub for!
Thanks for the suggestion on the ice cream! They are amazing!!!!
“If you can’t open it that’s probably your fault..”. So true! But opening the ippei-chan karashi-mayo to make good stripes is an art.
I feel like to move to Seattle after watching all those food mart videos from last 3-4 episodes of strictly dumplings.🤤🤤🤤
Made my day. Love how you rewarded the yaki soba with some roast pork. Although, the Ippudo noodle bowl didn’t get a piece. Lol. I’m currently obsessed with dan dan noodle bowls.
I also picked up the Myojo Yakisoba box when I was in Tokyo and even now I get so hungry thinking about it. Best instant noodles I've ever had!
hey Mikey friendly reminder that tonkatsu is fried pork cutlet and tonkotsu with ‘o’ is the pork broth ramen 🍜
Mikey I have noticed that whenever you have anything with karashi mustard, you call it wasabi. They are different
to be frank to anyone outside of japan and had never tried the real wasabi, it's wasabi
19:58 - That joy in Mikey's voice when he realises the packet is chillies.
You know a good instant noodle cook when you see one, I kinda want Mike to cook my instant noodles now.... And goddd mike please sit down and have your food!!!
That’s the supermarket of my dreams 😍😍😍 that’s it I’m flying to Seattle from Cologne !
I live here. Can confirm its worth it
@@Boinks Ditto. Uwajimaya is the best!
Honestly, loving the noods. 😍
Ever since I watched your noodle videos I can not stop asking my mom for new ramen to try and I told my girlfriend that we need to get noodles and try them and kinda be like you. You are the best you make my day when I'm not doing so good thanks 😊♥️
Defo my favourite food/travel blogger really makes me hungry and they you make me feel like I’m right there with you ✌🏻
Mike when will the merch with
*I dont to hangovers*
*I only do food comas*
be released? XD
already in the store :-)
@@strictlydumpling Ah really? Did not know that😅
I would rather be drunk on food everyday instead of alcohol😉
Actually never had alcohol before and have no plans to either😅
@@strictlydumpling I'd like to see (THEN BUY) a shirt with "We will We will Wok You"
Me: *frantically searching for names of Asian noodles*
My search history: *does not compute*
Mikey dancing waiting for the cup noodles just made my day!
love your videos and tweets! Mike !
I'm glad I'm not crazy, lol. I bought one of those Ocean's Halo ramen kits, and I was really excited about it, but it was just. Inedible. I really tried to get through it, but it tasted like damp cardboard. I don't know if it's the bowl it cooks in or what. I rarely throw food away, but it had to go. :(
that was BAD
All that packaging for a terrible meal, such a shame
I tried the miso flavor of that brand it's not any better
They also sell just the Ocean's Halo broth, avoid at all costs.
Damn... how did that thing manage to get on the market? Didn't they test it?
Cup noodles - meh! Japanese version - why that changes everything!
^ how I feel about everything over there. From seven-eleven to just about every fast food chain.
Haven’t even watched the whole video but I love this thank you!
Mike! So glad you loved Myojo Instant Yakisoba, its my personal favorite because of how convenient, easy, quick, and delicious it is. Not to mention its pretty cheap
Last time I was this early, it was Strictly Dumplin'
Me: looking at the screen with a lot of love in my eyes...
My boyfriend: Whoa, what are you looking at like that.....
Me: * turns my ipad around to face him...*
* Different kinds of ramen flashing by...*
Him: Figures....
Hi Mikey! The Curry Cup Noodles I actually recommend microwaving it, it’s also recommended by the directions on the side
The curry is more thick if you microwave it, versus the thin curry from just pouring hot water
Thanks for sharing your video review! I love noodles and tag what you like! yay so many option out there in my local international Asian market I get dizzy looking at them lol! More videos like this please :)
You know your product is good if:
-Mikey adds pork to the item
-Mikey adds hot oil to the item
-Mikey adds both hot oil and pork to the item
Love tonkotsu, I was excited when you picked up the packet. As soon as I heard vegan I instantly lost interest and had a feeling it wasn’t gonna be great 😰 thanks for taking that bullet for me! lol
Love the instant noodle videos
Ive been adding tom yum paste to my ramen and is amazing! Im thinking of throwing in a couple boiled eggs in and other ideas
“Sa-koo-rah soda” 😂. Looks delicious though!
I had a similar yakisoba a few days back watching your supermart video. Glad to see we have similar opinion!
been to that one many times, Bellevue one, I also like the Renton and Downtown Chinatown one by the stadium, God bless you Mikey for still making content pandemic or not, you are a true hustler
Suggestion : You are amazing. If possible please try to do testing while sitting on high table. Eating something continuously standing not good.
You rock.
