[CLOSED] Popo & Nana's Delights (Maxwell)

Popo & Nana’s Delights, tucked away inside Maxwell Food Centre, is one of those places to showcase a different menu each day, so check their Facebook page before heading down. In fact, they're only open for four hours each day - which tells you how fast they sell out. If you like challenging yourself with spicy food, Burppler Khaw Han Chung recommends going for their Eurasian Chicken Devil’s Curry ($6). Other dishes on rotation include Pork Rib Buah Keluak ($8), Ayam Masak Merah ($8), and Nyonya Chap Chye ($6).

Popo & Nana's Delights (Stall 70)
Nyonya Pork Rib Buah Keluak ($6)
- Comes with rice, braised cabbage, bowl of sweet corn soup, 4 chunks of pork rib and I asked for their chili as well
- Buah keluak sauce had the fragrant taste of fermented black beans and was thick and fleshy. When paired with the rice and their chili sauce, it complemented one of another really well, the chili being sour and spicy.
- The star of the show had meat which was fall-off-the-bone tender, making every bite really satisfying
- Overall, a hearty and healthier hawker dish (You can add $0.50 to opt for brown rice) that is extremely value-for-money
Price: 9.5/10
Taste: 9/10
Overall: 9.5/10

🍴As far as we’re aware, Popo and Nana is the only Peranakan and Eurasian food hawker stall in Singapore born out of Grace’s love for these homecooked cuisines. We’ve patronised them a couple of times at their Maxwell stall, but decided to try delivery this time around.

Of the 4 dishes we ordered, our family had 2 favourites. The first was the udang nanas (prawn and pineapple curry) which had fresh prawns and juicy pineapple slices in an insanely aromatic and spicy curry. The sauce was so addictive! The second was the beef smore (braised beef stew) with fork tender beef chunks swimming in a dark, herbal-like sauce that was a scrumptious marriage between sweet and savoury. We doused our rice in both sauces and it was truly glorious~

We also enjoyed the classic chap chye which delivered what you would expect - nothing more or less. Our least favourite was the ayam buah keluak. We usually love buah keluak, but we found the chicken breast meat a tad too dry. The sauce also leaned too much on the sour side, and the buah keluak itself still carried slightly bitter notes.

Overall, this was hearty, homely food. At $34 (+$5 for delivery) for 4 dishes which fed 5 of us with leftovers, it was a highly enjoyable meal. Fully expecting my family to order from them again!
