Hotspring at Kolam Air Panas Bentong · 9:33 AM

Entrance is free, comes with a toilet, and the water is not really hot.

Breakfsst at Kopitiam L Y Corner · 10:39 AM

Only wanton noodle available, where most local uncles are having their kopi. The noodle is just average.

The daily morning market. Famous items includes Bentong ginger, Bentong soy sauce, Sat Ke Ma, Dumpling and Kuih.

Dessert at TAK Ice Cream Corner 陈雪糕店 · 12:08 PM

Somehow Bentong is famous for home made ice-cream.

Smooth Tau Fu Fah. They also sell dumpling and Tau Foo Pok.

Snack at 文冬玻璃口联发加央角 Bentong Lian Fa Kaya Puff · 12:48 PM

We like the puff here, especially the Kaya Puff.

Lunch at Tom Yam King (Restoran Krauthai) · 1:31 PM

The food is generally nice, but slightly on the sweet side.

Visit at 旧玻璃口财神庙师爷庙 · 2:46 PM

This temple is quite elaborate with many gods of richness (at least 30 of them).

Stroll at Taman Rekreasi Sungai Marong · 3:59 PM

A simple park, where the big "Bentong" sign is situated.

Stay at Gibbon Retreat Bentong · 4:59 PM

Nestled among the trees by the hill sloop, you gets serenity. The room is simple. Only 15 minutes drive to Bentong Town, though the entry road is dusty due to ongoing constructions nearby You can bbq here, though not everything is provided (check with the caretaker, he is helpful). There is a small rock pool for swimming, and two short treks.

Hiking at Gibbon Retreat Bentong · 7:56 AM

There are probably two hiking trails in this property, and this is the one which does not lead to a waterfall, but a big open area with plenty of rocks.

Lunch at Lemang Toki 2 · 12:23 PM

The lemang with rendang is okay, probably because we just tasted better ones few weeks ago. Most of the customers go for their mix rice.

Snack at Keropok Lekor Sujoh · 12:50 PM

The keropok is surprising good, crispy and fluffy at the same time. The sauce slightly sweet, but very nice.

Lunch at Kedai Kopi Dan Makanan Weng Fatt · 1:26 PM

Kopitiam in the new village. A special dish would be curry wild boar. Food is okay.

Drink at Jaya Highlands Enterprise · 2:49 PM

Coconut shakes with some jelly, perfect for a hot day.

Hike at DO Hill trailhead · 3:54 PM

A local community trail, with good view of the town. It could be quite hot at the peak. Somehow there are lots of cockle shells along the way.
+15

Dessert at Café Kow Po · 5:39 PM

Between the two affordable ice-cream shop in Bentong, we like this one slightly more.

Dinner at Bentong Walk · 7:02 PM

It is like night food stalls. Plenty of varieties, the one we tried taste average (because the fritters are not crunchy).
