This review covers the Jilin venue in Sanmin District, close to Kaohsiung Medical University and Kaohsiung Main Station. The interior is spacious and bright, seating about 25 people. It operates 24 hours a day and accepts credit cards and cash. This Kaohsiung's Unmanned Ramen venue offers a diverse menu, including over 60 types of imported Korean instant noodles, plus options like chicken rice, seafood rice, and bacon noodles. Staff are present during the day, making it a truly unmanned ramen venue only late at night. The self-service topping bar includes cabbage, onions, bean sprouts, hot dogs, sausages, oden slices, green onions, pickled mustard greens, and kimchi. Additional paid toppings include eggs, rice cakes, cheese slices, char siu, ajitama eggs, snow crab legs, osmanthus egg sausage, various beverages, and Korean ice cream. ### 24H 韓金智能拉麵店 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Free self-serve bar with a huge variety of toppings REVIEWED BY [伊塔塔](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/%E4%BC%8A%E5%A1%94%E5%A1%94/) One day, Itata was near the Kaohsiung Medical University business district and passed by 24H Han Jin Smart Ramen. Upon entering the venue, a staff member guided her and explained how to use the machines. Itata was puzzled why an unmanned ramen venue would have staff present. She learned that staff are on-site during the day to constantly replenish the self-serve bar ingredients, ensuring guests enjoy fresh food. Itata really liked the environment at this Kaohsiung's Unmanned Ramen. The interior is spacious, the air conditioning is strong, the decor is bright, the instructions are clear, the flow is well-designed, and the venue is clean. It's very intuitive; you know exactly where to go as soon as you enter. This time, Itata ordered Ottogi Spicy Cheese Ramen, cheese, a raw egg, char siu pork slices, and a Korean imported drink, adding various toppings. Most of the ingredients were fresh and delicious, except for the char siu pork slices, which were a bit disappointing; she probably wouldn't order them again. Overall, it's definitely worth a return visit. The free self-serve bar offers a diverse range of toppings that are constantly refilled. Plus, there are many drinks and ice cream options. If Itata hadn't been rushing that day, a popsicle after finishing the hot Korean ramen would have been perfect!

You can order drinks directly from the ramen ordering machine, or ask the staff next door for assistance. Plus, you get a discount on drinks when you dine in. This unmanned ramen venue offers over 50 types of instant noodles, including popular Taiwanese brands like Man Han Da Can and Yi Du Zan, alongside Korean options. Payment methods include cash, credit card, and mobile payment. There's seating both indoors and outdoors, though the space is compact: about four seats inside and eight outside. The venue is consistently clean and tidy. The self-service bar offers complimentary vegetables, crab sticks, tofu skin, corn, and seaweed. Additional toppings like cheese slices, eggs, beef, and pork are available for an extra charge. ### Ajussi 阿啾西拉麵圖書館 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Double the Satisfaction: Instant Noodles and Bubble Tea REVIEWED BY [Wen](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/wen/) Ajussi Ramen Library stands out because you can order drinks directly. After placing your order at the machine, your drink is brought right to you—super convenient! Instant noodles paired with bubble tea offer double the satisfaction. Wen chose the Shin Ramyun with a mildly spicy beef bone broth, adding beef, pork, and egg. Each meat portion included about three slices, and the quality was fresh and delicious. The side dishes also looked very fresh. The only minor disappointment was the absence of kimchi, which is typically a standard accompaniment for Korean instant noodles. The signage inside the unmanned ramen venue is very clear, with steps 1-7 explicitly marked. There are even suggested cooking times for your egg, depending on how well-done you prefer it, which is a thoughtful touch. The food waste disposal unit is a state-of-the-art system that grinds and flushes waste directly, preventing any area from accumulating food scraps and attracting fruit flies or raising other hygiene concerns. This makes it a highly recommended Kaohsiung's Unmanned Ramen venue, perfect for a late-night meal.

The Zhongxiao branch we visited was very new, accommodating about 20 people. It's located in the Zhongxiao Night Market, with space for about five scooters out front. You can pay with cash, credit card, or mobile payment. This Kaohsiung's Unmanned Ramen venue offers over 60 food and drink options, including Korean instant noodles, Korean black bean noodles, Taiwanese instant noodles, cup noodles, and microwaveable rice. Beyond instant noodles, there are microwaveable items like sous vide chicken breast, beef short plate, pork belly, and frozen pizza, all ready to eat after heating. You can also purchase eggs, cheese, and beverages. The venue's walls display instructions in both Chinese and Korean. After selecting your instant noodles and adding seasoning, you can head to the free self-service area to pick toppings: cabbage, onions, bean sprouts, oden slices, and red kimchi. ### 韓熙恩 24H 無人拉麵 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Check in for free cheese — perfect with your ramen! REVIEWED BY [伊塔塔](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/%E4%BC%8A%E5%A1%94%E5%A1%94/) When Itata arrived, she was surprised to find staff on hand to guide customers through the process. They even helped her find a ramen option on the menu and microwaved her chicken breast. Itata ordered the Ottogi Cheese Spicy Ramen, an egg, a slice of sous vide chicken, and a Milk Tea. She loaded up on cabbage and corn from the self-serve bar, adding an egg and cheese to finish. It was a satisfying, filling meal! Currently, there's a promotion where you can get free cheese by checking in, so be sure to participate if you want some extra. Itata's favorite feature was the "add time" option on the ramen cooker, which allowed her to cook her cabbage and egg longer, just the way she likes them. If you also prefer softer ingredients, Itata recommends cooking the vegetables first before adding the noodles to prevent them from becoming overcooked. Overall, this Kaohsiung unmanned ramen venue offers good accessibility, service, interior design, and flow. However, there's room for improvement in environmental hygiene. For instance, some kimchi sauce was left on the self-serve bar's ingredient lids and wasn't promptly cleaned by staff. Additionally, being located within a night market, flies can easily enter the venue, which might be bothersome.

This Kaohsiung's Unmanned Ramen venue seats about 30 people and offers around 60 types of instant noodles. Customers simply add their chosen noodles and ingredients to a metal pot, then follow the instructions on the wall to start cooking. Payment options include cash, credit card, and mobile payment, and it operates 24 hours a day. In addition to Korean instant noodles, they also offer Taiwanese instant noodles and cup noodles. Extra toppings available for purchase include pork, cheese, eggs, and beverages. The free self-service area provides toppings such as cabbage, dark leafy greens, hot dogs, corn, kimchi, bamboo shoots, chopped green onions, and bean sprouts. The venue also offers unlimited complimentary white rice, black tea, milk tea, and plain water. ### 泡咪 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #All-you-can-eat veggies, rice, tea, and milk tea at this ramen venue REVIEWED BY [伊塔塔](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/%E4%BC%8A%E5%A1%94%E5%A1%94/) For a late-night meal, Itata chose Paomi, a venue that's easy to spot with its large sign and convenient scooter parking right outside. What surprised Itata most was that Paomi uses a cast-iron pot to cook the ramen. This is not only more environmentally friendly than aluminum foil, but its deeper design allows for more vegetables to be added. The pot also has a handle, making it much easier and safer to remove from the ramen machine. It's truly excellent. The self-service bar at this unmanned ramen venue is also impressive, offering three varieties of fresh, delicious vegetables. Thanks to the deep cast-iron pot, you can pile on a generous amount! Enjoying a late-night ramen feast with so many vegetables really minimizes the guilt, which is a huge plus. Itata ordered Japanese miso ramen with sliced meat and a Korean lactic acid drink. The meat slices were decent. If Itata hadn't been full, there was also white rice available to add to the pot, making it an ideal spot for students looking for a hearty, affordable meal. Overall, while this Kaohsiung's Unmanned Ramen venue might not have extravagant decor and the air conditioning was a bit weak, its strengths lie in the free drinks, white rice, cast-iron cooking pots, and abundant vegetable options. If you're craving a satisfying late-night meal, Paomi comes highly recommended!
