Didn’t expect instant noodle

So, I splurged on these ICHIRAN Instant Noodles thinking it’d be a special upgrade for my noodle-loving son. At nearly double the price of our usual budget noodles, I was expecting a flavor explosion or at least something to justify the cost. But honestly? They were just... fine. The broth was decent, and the noodles had a nice curly texture, but nothing that screamed ‘premium’ compared to the cheap instant noodles we can get anywhere.My son’s verdict? He straight up prefers the cheaper ones! Maybe it’s the simplicity of the cheaper packs, but he wasn’t wowed at all by these. The flavor was underwhelming, especially for something imported from Japan. The broth lacked that deep, rich taste you expect from premium ramen, and the portion size wasn't anything to write home about either.Long story short: if you’re buying this as a ‘luxury’ treat, save your money. Stick with the budget-friendly options, because apparently, pricier noodles don’t guarantee a better slurp! 🍜

I do believe it is the same flavour compared to what you will get in their restaurant in Japan.However, I don’t think I will spend 8 pounds for only a tiny portion of noodles and broth, no matter how good the broth is.Not recommend.
