I was really impressed with indomie Mi Goreng. While most budget ramen give you one spice packet, Indomie Mi Goreng gives you no less than five, yes five spice packets to customize flavor to your hearts content. As you struggle to get every last bit of seasoning out of those packets, this instant noodle fools you into thinking it's much more premium than the packaging and cost would suggest. Of course I just throw everything in but that's beside the point.

Flavor is a combination of sweet soy, chili and fried shallots. Admittedly this package is way past it's due date so the shallots weren't as crisp as they should have been. Overall quite good considering the age and that it's probably vegetarian. I tried to recreate the manufacturer's suggestion on the packet with an egg, shrimp and veggies.

Took a chance on the black garlic ramen special. Tonkotsu base with some garlic oil. Bowl also included corn, bambu shoots, nori, bok choy? scallions, egg, and charsiu.

The broth was weak and I couldn't tell if there was any garlic. What should have been the star of the show was really a letdown. Broth not hot enough. There were also no condiments available to add such as hot pepper or green onion. At least there was a good selection of toppings thrown in and the included charsiu was generous. I'd like to see more but thinner charsiu slices.

This is their most popular dish and for good reason. it's their tonkatsu with added slow cooked garlic cloves and garlic oil. Everything is the way it should be. The broth is very rich it has a decent amount of fattiness but it's not overpoweringly fatty. The noodles were chewy. There were some extra bamboo, nori, egg… the only thing holding back from giving me giving it five stars was that t's a bit pricey, with small portions and the soup should have been hotter.
