Baby and i went down to Changi Airport for a kaypo look around the new T3 the other day and i thought it would be a good time to finally try popeyes chicken!
There was previously only one popeyes chicken at T1, but there's now a new one at T3~ I just wish they'd open new outlets at places other than the airport though! (Thanx wenn for pointing out that there's another new outlet at the Singapore Flyer!)
Changi Airport T1
Viewing Mall Central
Level 3
and
Changi Airport T3
Basement 2
We ordered a 2-piece chicken set ($6.45) each and chose cajun fries and coleslaw as our sides~
I was actually quite eager to try their chicken coz of all the good reviews they had but both of us didn't like it! The first bite reminded us of KFC's chicken (the spices used) but popeyes chicken's flavour was blander~
The subsequent bites only served to remind us how painfully dry and tough their chicken was! I dunno whether it's coz we caught them on a bad day or their standard has gone down but we would much rather have Arnold's or even KFC, thank u very much!
The only good thing was that their sides were pretty good. I liked the cajun fries and we loved the coleslaw! The savoury biscuits were alright, but i found it quite jerlat after a few bites~
In a nutshell, Arnold's Fried Chicken is still the best!

i wanted to try the whipped potato but we could only choose 2 sides (didn't want to get an extra order), so i thought i'd try it next time!

yah i agree! paying an extra $1.50 to choose the chicken parts u prefer is just ridiculous! i understand their rationale for the extra charge, but $1.50 is a tad too much!
i always request for chicken thighs and drumstick at kfc too haha~
