A new Chaplus has just been opened last Friday on May 18 at the new Midland and Finch plaza, right next door to Cheese Garden. This looks to be their 4th location. I had wanted to check them out earlier when they first opened their two locations but was not able to do so.
I asked the girl at the counter what she suggested and she recommended drinks such Cha +Taro Milk Tea, made with real taro and also the Passion Fruit Rocket. Most of their drinks seemed to made with real ingredients and not powder. We can see the actual bits of fruits or taro in the drink. Cha Taro Milk Tea was ok but it wasn't as good as I would have enjoyed. However I still like the taro. The passion Fruit Rocket was lovely. I also saw them at the back squeezing orange juice to make oj.
I also gave a try on their waffles and they tasted artificial. Even the waffles looked plasticky. I opted for the strawberry and the sesame waffle. It was not worth the prices. the drinks are the main attraction.
Chaplus currently has a new opening promotion that runs until May 27 for drinks or waffles. Buy one Get one Free on any waffles or drinks. Definitely a steal.
There is a lot of free parking in the plaza but the plaza gets so busy that may need to park further at the back and walk back. There is about 16 seats and four tables.
decor looked to be average but the music at the bbt was really nice. good mixture of cantonese, english
and mandarin songs.
