There, we asked aesthetician Kim Slater what was her single favorite service, item or anything else from another New Canaan business.

Her answer: The organic mixed bag salad with a simple lemon dressing, from Baldanza Natural Market and Café across the street.

“It’s delicious,” Slater said. “They’re the only organic restaurant around, open for breakfast and lunch, and they’re great people. They are a very friendly staff.”

Owner Sandy Baldanza said that mixed bag salad is the most popular item on the menu right now.
