The Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro range has been announced by Nissin Foods as a series of restaurant-inspired instant ramen products that aim to bring premium flavor with a convenient twist into the home. The product range has three flavors including Korean Gochujang Beef, Sichuan Garlic Chicken and Japanese Miso, which are each ready in three minutes when cooked in the microwave. The products are thus great for enjoyment at home as a meal or snack, while also being suited for enjoyment at the office as an alternative to takeout.
The Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro range has been promoted by the brand with a partnership with miniatures artist Panda Miniatures who designed a micro bistro out of an actual microwave.
