PETALING JAYA, Jan 29 ― Indonesia’s Nunuk Nuraini, creator of Indomie's various flavours, passed away two days ago at age 59.

According to BBC news, Nunuk worked as the brand’s flavour development manager for nearly 30 years and was instrumental in creating flavours such as soto, rendang, and chicken curry.

The news portal reported that although the brand has come up with dozens of flavours, the ‘mi goreng’ flavour was still the most popular flavour among consumers.

And in 2019, the brand soared to success when it was named the most delicious ramen by the Los Angeles Times.
