Shincup, there is no equal...
Unless you are talking about Shin Cup Black.

This. Just eating some now. The garlic, soy sauce and oil sachet is the best bit.

There really is only two shincups. The original which is the red one. Then they have their black one, which is a special edition premium one with an extra sachet to add flavour, thicken the soup and give it a more 'premium' taste.
These are also my favourite but my local Tesco, Sainsbury's and cornershop all stopped selling them around the same time last year so assumed they stopped making them. Will have to order a load online.

There are a few other Korean ones that are spicier but i just find the taste from Shincup better.
For you Shincup lovers, try one of these bad boys:

The premium 'black' version.
Warning, NEVER smell Shincup before or immediately after adding water. Salt and Chilli are two horrible things to get up your nose.

Tried this once. Didn't end well
+1 my favourite shin cup as well! I always mix in a little shredded chicken to add a bit of protein.

There seems to be a lot of knowledge in this thread so maybe you guys can help.
In Aus in 2000 I used to by noodles very like Indo Mike (they may have been for all I know). The had garlic in oil, some soy, a red chilli sauce, a flavour sachet and a small sachet of crispy onions. They were as cheap as the Indo Mie ones linked to.
Any ideas what they might have been?

If you wouldn't have anything spicier than a tika masala from an indian, then it would be too spicy I would say.
The Nong Shin chicken and the beef ones are pretty good. They have oolongmen written on the front. They are harder to get from supermarkets though.

They're not hot hot as in chilli hot. They're spicy hot, so if you can handle a hot curry then a shin cup shouldn't be a problem.Are these shin cup death in terms of heat, then? It’s the impression you’re all giving! What are the options for sissy types (me) who can’t handle a lot of heat?
