instand yakisoba & mobile drip coffee

just a random post on two interesting food items i came across recently.... first thing is the japanese cup noodle.... & i mean is really from JAPAN, japanese cup noodle..... bf's parents went to japan for holiday recently & future mother in law gave me a instant cup noodle to try....

cup noodle
i forgot to take picture of the outside packaging... but it is the sauce yakisoba.... quite interesting to me as i havent tried cooking dried instant noodle before... like most japanese products, they are very detailed in their packaging & instructions.... then the thing i really like about this cup noodle is the extra opening for you to drain water
holes to drain water
this is really nice... cause most cup noodle only ask you to drain water from the same opening when you add in hot water... but this packaging has holes on the other side such that you can drain off the water easily!!!

soba with the sauces
well mixed sauce yakisoba
of cause this yakisoba wont taste as nice as those cooked in the restaurant but i think the standard is really pretty good for an instant noodle!!!


another interesting thing i observed recently is the mobile drip coffee.... i gotten this freebie when i walked around orchard last week....
freebie coffee
when i first looked at the packaging i didnt understand what it meant by mobile drip coffee cause i dont drink coffee... when i looked at the picture then i understand what it is.... i think it is a pretty  cool concept... normally you need to buy the extra filter to have the drip coffee effect but with this mobile drip, you can easily have a nice cup of coffee!!!!

the mobile drip design
when i opened the packet, the whole room is filled with the nice coffee aroma... i think it really smell nice even for a non-coffee drinker like myself...

mobile drip
it is a very simple design, the whole idea is just having this extra "handle" so that the filter will not drop into the cup.... but is this extra effort which makes this coffee special...

dripping coffee
really cool as i watch how the coffee dripped into the cup.... my bf say the coffee tasted ok, mayb on a slightly acidic side but the aroma is pretty good.... my friend went to check online... for 50 serving it cost S$60..... i would say this is quite pricey for "instant" coffee... but due to the unique mobile drip feature, you get a nicer cup of coffee which cost S$1.20 per cup... i think it is still a good catch if you are a coffee fan =) for more information, can check out their website here -> onefreshcup
