When the longing for authentic Pinoy dishes strikes in the U.S., Isla Grand stands ready to transport your taste buds back to the Philippines.

Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day. On our first visit to Isla Grand, I was captivated by the décor, noticing many native items that gave the place a fancy yet authentic Filipino feel. They usually have a live band, but unfortunately, there was no entertainment the night we went. My family had spoken highly of Isla Grand and encouraged us to try the Filipino dishes we’ve been missing from back home. Lech...

Nongshim Shin Ramyun Non-Frying Noodle Soup


In our life there will always be someone who leaves us not due to having problems in your relationship more on having a difficult time in their work environment.

Those employees who have gained to be their family gives some people looking sad in their heart.

In life we need to think there may be something better for them reason why they decided to leave their old employer.

I had purchase Nongshim Shin Ramyun Non-Frying at Wang Mart Quezon City through Grab Mart having no clue if it was mild or spicy flavor for PHP 73.00 ($1.46) not including handling and tip to the rider.

I cannot read the package due I don't understand Korean and there was no note when I was placing it in my basket for the indication all it said was Shin Non Frying Cup.

I went ahead and prepared the Nongshim Shin Ramyun Non-Frying by boiling the hot water from our kettle.



Pretty neat looking at how the dried noodles look inside being loose compared to other ramen noodles in an instant cup.


The orange packages is the dried vegetables, silver seasoning and clear sesame oil you will add the ingredients before adding the boiling water up to the line indicated inside the cup.



I was able to sample the Nongshim Shin Ramyun Non-Frying it was too spicy for me that I couldn't handle the taste. Ike claimed he loves eating spicy food. I gave it to him to eat for his dinner. Ike told me he couldn't believe how spicy it was the more he drank water the hotter it got in his tongue. I had mentioned it is better if you drink dairy product for example you love drinking milk tea the spiciest will remove from your mouth.


Even though it will be Ike's last dinner with us at least we have some memories left behind when he moves back to his hometown.
