    Advantages Advantages Quick and easy. Very tasty

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive. Don't serve 2!!!

    After just eating my lunch, I was interested to see what fellow Ciaoers had to say about Vesta's Chow Mein's. Imagine my surprise then that no-one had actually written a review of these fantastic meals. Well I don't want anyone missing out on these just because they have no information so I decided that I will do a review myself on the product. So here goes... Vesta's Chow Mein comes from any major supermarkets and nowadays from local convinience stores as well. Costing anywhere in the region of £1.80-£3, they say that they serve 2. However, I don't believe this for an instant. In my humble ... more

    Advantages Advantages tasty and cheap

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    Now as a kid of the 70s i used to love the Vesta Chow Mein as a special treat when my mum was too busy to make a proper meal - ah the irony. Anyway as i grew up and not giving them much consideration i probably thought they stopped making them so i was pleasantly surprised when i spotted them in my local Asda, along with others in the the same range including the paella and beef curry. (Have to admit i was never really keen on the other varieties it was only the Chow Mein that I liked). I immediately put one into my shopping trolley for a trip down memory lane and a bit of nostalgia. The ... more

    5 Stars Vesta Chow Mein 13/12/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to cook. Can use microwave.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Fairly high salt content.

    I love Vesta Chow Mein it is so simple to prepare and it tastes great! Total preparation time is 25 minutes. Sometimes if my partner is late home I dont really want to be cooking a dinner late in the evening so the chow mein is good for providing a tasty meal in no time at all. You can cook on the hob or use a microwave, to be honest I have never cooked it on the hob as the microwave option is so easy as you can leave it cooking without having to watch it which means I can be getting on with other things. Quite simply empty the chow mein packet and the soft noodle packet into a bowl and stir ... more

    5 Stars Quick review of Vesta Chow Mein, serves two by roadiejohn 09/09/2008
    Just a quick note on the "Vesta Chow Mein", having driven 200 miles to get home, 4 hours in the rain... Lovely!! I really couldn't face the thought of cooking anything too complex, I found this product lurking in the back of the cupboard. It was an ideal quick meal, I bought 5 of these a few months back as they were only 99p each in my local Co-Op. A complete bargain! Cooked & eaten inside 35 minutes. I cannot say that 1 box would be adequate for 2 people though. Perfect for one person. 1 saucepan, 1 frying pan, 1 ... more

    5 Stars Quick review of Vesta Chow Mein, serves two by grrrrr981 08/02/2009
    I love Vesta Chow Mein and Paella and have done since I was a kid. 35yrs old now with two children of my own who also enjoy the Vesta meals on occasions, they are tasty, quick and simple and do come in handy! Sad to say these Vesta meals are getting harder to find and I fear it is only a matter of time before Vesta Chow Mein & Paella go the same way as my old fave and best of them all...Chicken Supreme!
