Little India Trail & Banana Leaf Lunch

January 10 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm

This Pongal Village Trail takes you through lively streets in Little India, where you’ll see traditional celebrations come to life — from colourful pongal pots to festive cattle. Witness how Little India transforms its streets to honour this celebration. 

 

The trail ends with a village-inspired vegetarian banana leaf lunch, bringing the flavours of the harvest straight to your table. The meal will be at Anandha Bhavan Restaurant.
