Stopped by Ginger Heritage in Bentong and left thoroughly impressed. The British India Curry Chicken Pie (M01) arrived piping hot with buttery-flaky pastry and a deeply aromatic Southern-Indian curry filling—comforting yet refined. The Three Ginger Rice (M02) was a show-stopper: turmeric-hued rice, galangal rendang chicken and tangy ginger acar that balanced richness with zing. Desserts kept the ginger theme playful. The Thai-style Sangkaya Fak Thong (001) pumpkin custard came draped in a silky ginger sauce—sweet, earthy and just spicy enough. The Ginger Choux (002) was light, airy and filled with a pleasantly warming cream. Washed everything down with their signature Ginger Tonic (D01)—a fizzy pick-me-up that cut through the meal perfectly. Portions are generous, prices fair, and the staff greet you like old friends. If you’re exploring Bentong and want a creative twist on local flavours (with plenty of ginger love), this spot is a must-try!

Hidden gem in the heart of Bentong! Ginger Heritage is a llittle cafe located right in the Bentong town center. A perfect stop if you're heading back to the highway after visiting Bentong Farm. Parking is convenient with plenty of spaces both in front and behind the cafe. The service here is warm and welcoming. The owner was friendly and took the time to explain their signature ginger detox shots, even offering us a free sample. It was so good we ended up getting a full-sized bottle! Food-wise, the kimchi fried rice was a standout. Generous portions of well-fermented kimchi made it one of the best versions I’ve tasted in Malaysia. The drinks were decent. I had the Vietnamese drip coffee with ginger cream (an interesting twist), and my kid enjoyed the ginger boba milk tea. The cafe is clean, cozy, and well-maintained including the toilet, which is a plus. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Bentong or just passing through. Great food, great vibes, and that ginger detox shot alone makes it memorable!

Cute traditional cafe with a twist of modern menus. I loved that the cafe confirmed with us that the cafe is a “no pork no lard” cafe, which is Muslim-friendly. The owner first welcomed us with a cup of cold pressed ginger juice which I bought 2 home. The ginger chaux and Vietnamese coffee with ginger cream is a must try! I like the fact that it’s also reasonably priced and car park is a breeze.

This place is an absolute heaven sent. Bentong being famed for their ginger but it wasn’t easy to get a ginger tea drink despite so many ginger tea products being sold at shops. The cafe was large and airy, many types of seating available with friendly staff and wonderful store owner spending time to explain the science behind ginger with us despite him being busy serving us and other customers. The complimentary detox drink was absolutely refreshing! Makes you wanna have more! The range of ginger laced beverages and snacks are amazing ! Got to come and try this place if you are in Bentong!

An absolute must try cafe stop that showcases ginger in a more modern way like its western style choux pastry and creme brûlée on top of Asian treats like Thai pumpkin custard and bobba tea. The complimentary welcome drink of cold-pressed detox ginger tea was a refreshing surprise. They also sell souvenirs like ginger malted candy in cute tins that make lovely gifts for friends back home and spiced ginger cookies, yums. Don’t missed out also on more filling savouries like the aromatic 3Ginger chicken tumeric rice that was licked clean off the plate.
