I've patronized Popeyes for a few years now, and 2 of my must-haves from the menu, are the Bonafide Chicken and mash potato.The size of the bonafide chicken is quite huge. The skin is very crispy; the meat really tender and juicy. When you bite into the chicken the juice flows into your mouth and on your hands too. There is alot of flavour in the meat, and I don't find the meat to be dry, unlike most other fried chicken elsewhere.2 pieces for about $6+3 pieces for about $8+The mash potato is top

The mash potato is topped with a generous amount of Cajun gravy. This combination is stunning. The gravy gives a very strong and succulent flavour to the mash potato. Also, the potato is soft and easy to eat, which often leaves me craving for more even after finishing a large bowl on my own. Even without the gravy, there is sufficient taste in the mash potato to eat it on its own. I prefer Popeye's mash potato as compared to KFC's which I find to be on the starchy side - it gets me full and bloated too soon.
Small for $2+Large for $3+

Recent encounters at Punggol outlet:
Personally I find this outlet to be quite dirty especially during the night time. From the recent few months I've been there at night, their tables are mostly uncleared, and there is no attendant around to help.
There were a couple of times my friends and I had to clear tables on our own so that we could dine in. The patrons before us did not use a tray, and threw lose pieces of chicken bones all over the table. There were also puddles of water on the table from water, coke, sauces, coleslaw, mash potato, and leftover food all mixed together. As there were no other tables available, my friends and I decided to clear up the entire mess. After that, we went to the cleaner's counter to take a cleaning spray and cloth to wipe the table clean. There were also fingerprints of oil stains all over the seats so we wiped them down too, before eating. Did I mention there were bits of leftover food and chicken bones strewn on the floor too? It was an experience we didn't want to go through again, especially when it involves clearing a mess of leftovers of the food we were going to eat.In one of my recent encounter, my friends and I had some difficulty trying to order food from a service staff who didn't give any acknowledgement during the order process despite us repeating our orders. As she didn't even give a nod, we couldn't figure out if she had gotten our orders. However when she spoke a little after a long while, she was barely audible even though we tried to lean over the counter to hear her. Later on, we received wrong orders. When we finally settled down with the food, the more disappointing part was that our usual favourite Bonafide Chicken was too salty. It was surprising because while we understood that different outlets may serve food that deviates slightly in taste, that particular day's food was just way distinctively salty. Even the Buttermilk Biscuit was tasteless yet too salty. When we bit into it, it disintegrated into a lump of flour goop in our mouths. We gave up eating, and had no idea why our dining experiences at the Punggol outlet kept getting more and more disappointing. It was the first time in our lives we experienced a fast food chain serving food that was so different from its usual standards.
I do patronize Popeyes at many of their other outlets too. Those experiences have been good so far, so I guess that's where my friends and I are heading for our next Popeye's craving.
