NOODLES NOODLES NOODLES NOODLES

I think, in the american culture, soups are really underestimated. There aren't really any restaurants dedicated to just serving soups. But lets look outside of the box. In Japan they have dedicated ramen shops and carts serving you hot bowls of noodles. From Vietnam, Pho restaurants have begun to popularize America. When I was little, I don't remember Pho restaurants attracting such a diverse crowd, but today, EVERYONE knows about Pho and have come to CRAVE Pho.

Lol, however, this entry is not about Pho. Its about INSTANT SOUPS and how settle for more than your "top ramen" and "cup o noodles"
I love trying different instant soups because there is such a wide variety for under 50 cents a bag or a dollar a bowl. But who says you have to eat them the way it says so in the directions? With just the seasonings and condiments it comes with?

ADD SHIT IN!! lol usually, the picture on the front of the packaging, should be your guideline ^.^ (if you have no idea what to put in...)

I will probably be revisiting different ways I dress up my instant noodles in the future with different brands of soup. So here is one that I suggest :)

My sister bought this soup from Lotte (korean grocery store). SEE HOW THEY DRESS IT UP IN THE PICTURE? Anyways, it was pretty good. Would have liked it to be spicier (cause I'm a hot head), and I added different ingredients.


Not so bad looking right?
I added chopped cilantro, steamed broccoli, a fried egg and squeezed lime all over the soup. It was prettttty delicious ^.^

Don't be like this noob that I found on youtube. She has NO IDEA what she is doing.
