And... a second review in one day! Admittedly, it's one of the short picture-less ones, but that's because it's another Indomie packet. Save for the particularly interesting-looking ones, I'll be doing only brief reviews of these from here on in, because the packets are mostly identical. Each follows the pattern of having a coloured banner over a picture of prepared noodles – with excessive garnish, natch. This particular one has a day-glo orange banner with yellow text.

As preparation goes, it was identical to the Mi goreng BBQ Chicken in that it had five packets. As always, points off for having the packets glued together and pinked in such a way as to guarantee a disaster unless one instead employs a scissors.

The flavour is inexplicable. It's Mi goreng, all right, but with the added elements of a rendang curry. The result is something different and more complex than either, but exceedingly pleasant. In all, this ramen is as highly recommended as the others from Indomie. Just be ready for a little annoyance in preparation.

Numbers: packaging 3, preparation 2, heat 4, flavour 5, overall 5
