6. Purple Monkey • Puchong
4.6 (151 reviews)score 78/100
Purple Monkey built its name on cheesecake (mango, chocolate, matcha varieties) that still draws praise, with named staff like Anis and Maisarah standing out. The score sits lower at 77.5 partly because dine-in has been scaled back to pickup and delivery only, on shortened 11am-6pm hours.

- Popular items sell fast, a sign of demand
Watch out: Dine-in is closed; it's pickup and delivery only with shortened hours, and the QR ordering system confuses some customers.

4.5 (97 reviews)score 56/100
