So, does this instant Chilli Crab Flavour Semi Dry Ramen do justice to the iconic Singapore crab dish?

The relatively thick, straight noodles were soft, slurpy smooth and slightly springy. It has a slight taste of wheat.

Though the broth was not like the best chilli crab gravy made with fresh ingredients, it did remind me of chilli crab gravy's complex flavours.

The tangy, sweet, spicy and savoury notes were all there. I was surprised in a good way. The starchy broth had good body too.

However, it was short on chilli crab aroma.
