Instant noodle enthusiast and friend of Foodiggity, The Ramen Rater, recently completed his 1000th review of instant ramen. The package that Hans chose to do the honors — Yakisoba Beef Taco Flavor.
And, since this is a special review, and Hans likes to get creative with his noodles — he used the “taco flavor” as inspiration to make Ramen Nachos. Congrats, Hans. See the full review here.

Some like it hot. Some also enjoy instant noodles. Lucky for us, ‘The Ramen Rater’ Hans Lienesch knows a bit about both, and is back to share his list of the hottest instant noodles of all time. Go, Hans!
If you like black pepper, you’ll want to try this. It has a nice peppery sauce that has a rich and deep black pepper flavor that doesn’t quit. The garnish of dried veggies are an added bonus. Original review
Has decent noodles and a deep red broth that exclaims ‘beware of fire!’ The broth also has an oily texture and sweet notes that make it quite unique in its fire. Original review
The result of a comedian on a competition TV show in South Korea, Kko Kko Myun has been a huge craze. The flavor is a jalapeno chicken – and the jalapeno is nice and strong. Has a real good bite to it. Original review
DJ-Doc is a hip-hop group in South Korea and they must be pretty happy to have their faces on this stuff. In this bowl, you have noodles, large pieces which are rice cake and a red sauce which has a wonderful heat and flavor. It all ties together to be like a hot and spicy lasagna ala South Korea. Wonderful stuff! Original review
A very spicy Chinese noodle soup. Notice it’s not spicy beef, it’s spicy hot beef! Has decent veggies and a serious punch! Original review
Yep – they make this is the USA now. A standard of the spicy noodle world! Hot and tasty with lots of thick noodles. Original review
Sweet mother – this is intense! That little pepper was enough to burn my lips, mouth and gut for a good long time! Heavy duty! I should also mention there’s a place that sells spicy noodles in Jakarta that has 75 to 100 of these peppers mixed in – Imagination fails me as to the scorching pain! Original review
Hands down, bar none, this is the hottest stuff I’ve had. In over 800 varieties I’ve tried, this is the very hottest. From the first slurp to the end of the bowl, my mouth was on fire. If you are a big fan of all that is spicy, this is what you are looking for. Original review
