Kimchi Sabalmyeon 김치 사발면


김치 사발면... Kimchi Sabalmyeon. Tried to copy the photo on its cover..but FAIL. haha. Note: 김치 사발면 Kimchi Sabalmyeon DOESN'T come with the actual kimchi. You gotta buy it in a grocery or resto. ^^;;

김치 사발면 Kimchi Sabalmyeon tastes better with actual Kimchi  김치 ...~

Still can't copy the bowl noodle's appearance on the cover - no matter what the angle.


Product Name: Kimchi Sabalmyeon 김치 사발면...  I think it translates to Kimchi Bowl Noodle (사발면).

Hole in the Pocket: Costs around PhP 40-45 in groceries.

First Impression: Given the orange-themed cover, I was expecting it to be very spicy.

Taste Buds Say: Delish! Wasn't spicy enough for me to not be able to sip some soup. It's spiciness level was just right and it's great to keep one warm in a rainy day. I recommend putting in some slices of kimchi 김치 for added flavor, texture, and crunch. It really has that kimchi taste and the noodles stay firm even after being soaked in soup for a while. If there's no kimchi 김치, you can pair it with seaweed laver or gim (김). ^^b

K-rating: 5/5... tasty and just the right "hot".

Cheese Bokki 치즈 볶이

Large Cups of Cheese Bokki 치즈 볶이. 


A smaller version (cup) of Cheese Bokki 치즈 볶이 for a quick chow.


Oodles of Cheesy Noodles. Cooks in 4 minutes after adding hot water. REMEMBER! Put the cheese powder after draining the water.


So cheeezy... made me think of Mac & Cheese. *Nomnomnom*


Product Name: Cheese Bokki 치즈 볶이...Cheese (치즈 ) and Bokki (볶이). I don't know what "bokki" means and neither does Google translate (and my Korean dictionary is out of battery). I bet it's related to the Korean dish tteokbokki (떡볶이).

Hole in the Pocket: Special thanks to ♥.

First Impression: Can't think wrong about its flavor since cheese slices are on the cup. When I read the "콬콬! 콬", I read it like it's a "choking" sound...*kok kok kok*. But then I read somewhere that it's the sound made when you punch a hole in the lid. In fact, you can see the 콬!콬!콬!콬!  on the four designated areas where you need to punch a hole.

Taste Buds Say: Cheese and noodles...? I didn't think it would be that bad. But it turned out to be quite good. I recommend that you don't strain all the water, maybe leave a teaspoon, so that it'll be a little saucy and not too dry when you mix in the cheese powder. It has specks of green onion and lots and lots of cheese. If you have low tolerance for saltiness and concentrated cheezy goodness, cheese bokki 치즈 볶이 is probably not for you. 

K-rating: 4/5... I like cheese, I love noodles!
