Samyang Hot Chicken Ramen Original, 140 grams

I had been looking forward to tasting one of these for long. Wasn't sure if I could handle it so bought only two packets (Don't buy if it's not free delivery, the high delivery charges makes the purchase underwhelming). And, I must say though I love spicy food but don't have the greatest tolerance for it. Having these noodles hot, the first two-three bites are fine and it doesn't really have any significant taste. BUT the hell starts from the 4th bite onwards. Tongue burns when it touches the noodles, you sweat, lips get heated red from warmth (please don't torture yourself if you have cracked or busted lips, it'd hurt so bad). And though the heat in your mouth would subside in less than an hour, the stomach feels warm and burns a little (tolerable unless you have IBS or ulcers) for over 2 hours. And lastly, I'd say, it's ADDICTIVE! It gives you that kick, that adrenaline rush, if you, like me, find immense pleasure and satisfaction in spicy food. For others, it'd be a joykill. The noodles are definitely thicker and chewy (that's really nice!) Imagine Maggi noodles that swell but gets soggy, it's the same except this one doesn't get soggy but remains chewy. And personally, I loved the hot sauce, tasting it raw, it was really interesting. When mixed in noodles, the taste disappears, but raw, the sauce tastes yum. Do try this! And buy it only if Free Delivery. I'll try the Cheese ones next I guess haha.

I liked this, really. For me it was less spicy than I expected it to be. So it was actually good. And in general it is less spicy than the 2x one, infact slightly more than jjajangmeyeon so you cannot expect ear numbing level of spiciness from this. And yes, it is not rich in many flavours like that of any other samyang, you're going to get a strong red chilli flavour, but it's worth one try.Buy jjajangmeyeon instead if you want to have rich flavour experience with moderate level spiciness.

after watch lots of mukbang finally tried and loved it and would order again

For me the taste was just too much chilli with a weird flavour oil. The noodles were thick and chewy which was impressive. I do have a good spice tolerance but this was all just chilli. There’s no chicken flavour whatsoever. However, my younger sister did like it a bit but for me the sweetness in the start, chilli in the end with a weird flavour to it was a turn off. Ugh! Sorry Samyang, I expected much better from you but I am not giving up hope on you yet because I’ll be trying the 2x spicy soon. *fingers crossed*

It is quite expensive , but is worth for trying out a new experience . Is spicy af🔥🔥🔥 burnt my lips and my mouthPro tip :Liquids don't help 😁😁😁😁Keep ice-cream nearbyFlavor is good and tastes like chicken 😋 , if you can get past the spiciness 😂😵🔥🔥🔥

As an Indian I was looking forward to eat ramen but after buying this I would regret for buying this too much spicy ,unpleasant smell of flakes were the reasons unable to eat this ramen .I would recommend you to buy a veg ramen but not this one .Taste was terrible and bad for me.

A very spicy yet tasty product. Flavour is awesome as well as the taste. But just to give a suggestion for those who do not take much of spicy food, don't mix the whole liquid masala. I had used only 1/4th of the masala and it was too spicy for me. Also, it tastes good when added some veggies, cheese or half boiled egg. Overall it tastes good.

For indians I dont think its that spicy!Its sweet when you have it then after a bit you get that tingling sensation in your mouth,tongue and throat.Coming to the flavour..i didnt like the flavour that much..its okayish..the flavour of Nuclear fire ones are far better than this one!Also I liked the consistency of the noodles..they dont stick..and are much thick..so you need to boil them a bit more..Overall it was good..You can buy this if you cant tolerate much spicy food but tempted by the mukbangers out there😋
