Little India Sweets and Vegetarian Food: Two Easy Stops
A vegetarian meal, then a box of sweets to take home. That is the whole plan. Ananda Bhavan and Moghul Sweets give you two easy stops around southern Little India without turning dinner into a cross-island food hunt.

Moghul Sweets: your takeaway stop
48 Serangoon Road, #01-16, Little India Arcade
Published hours: daily, 9.30am–9pm.
Moghul’s website now says it is open for takeaway and delivery. We have removed the older pre-Deepavali notice that delivery slots were full. Check the current menu and available delivery slots when ordering.
If you are buying mithai for the first time, ask for a small mixed selection and the price before choosing a large gift box. Buying for someone else? Keep the ingredient label and storage instructions with it.
Ananda Bhavan: choose the nearest branch
These three locations are on the restaurant’s official outlet list:
- 58 Serangoon Road: 7.30am–10pm. An easy pairing with Little India Arcade.
- Blk 663 Buffalo Road, #01-10: 7am–10pm. Use this full address when navigating; the site also uses the short label “10 Buffalo Rd”.
- 95 Syed Alwi Road: 7.30am–11pm. Better suited to a walk farther north.
The menu distinguishes vegan and Jain options from the wider vegetarian selection. Tell staff what you avoid before ordering; vegetarian does not automatically mean dairy-free.
The simple route: meal first, sweets last
For the most compact version, eat at the 58 Serangoon Road outlet, then collect sweets at Little India Arcade. Both addresses keep you in the same part of the precinct. We would buy anything needing refrigeration just before heading home, rather than carrying it through an entire evening walk.
Going later? Moghul’s listed 9pm closing time comes before some nearby restaurants finish serving. Do not leave your sweets stop until after a late dinner.
One thing to check before gifting
Ask about milk, ghee, nuts and any other ingredient the recipient avoids. For a serious allergy, ask about shared equipment too. Different sweets have different storage needs, so get the instructions for your actual box rather than using a generic shelf-life estimate.
The 2026 Campbell Lane Festival Village has ended, but these are permanent businesses. For the rest of your outing, see what to do in Little India after Deepavali.
