Longtime Fairfield County Personal Chef Tanisha Williams has fulfilled her vision of having an organic juice bar with the opening of Fragrant Basil Juice Café on Main Street in Norwalk. Located across the street from the Ford dealership and Unity Center for Practical Spirituality, the cafe has an extensive menu of almost 30 fresh juices and smoothies cater to people with allergies and those looking to live a healthier lifestyle. Most source ingredients are local, organic, dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan-friendly, Williams says.

“I’m hoping it’s a place people will appreciate not just for its looks and products, but also for the health benefits our products offer,” she explains.

Launching the juice bar has been a labor of love and a family project; Williams and her husband Sean, along with their son and other family members, all pitched in to create the warm, inviting space. Tanisha worked as a personal chef in the area for more than 20 years and is excited about returning to the work she loves after taking time off to raise her youngest child.

The cafe’s menu is dairy-free including organic vegan milkshakes blended with house-made almond milk, energizing shots, and nearly 30 smoothies and juices along with a customizable menu. Toppings like coconut whip cream and dark chocolate shavings are also available, along with fruit bowls and infused waters.

Fragrant Basil Juice Café is located at 34 Main St, Norwalk and is open Monday-Friday from 7am-6pm (7pm until September) and Saturday 7am-7pm.
