I come from Ottawa, and this is my first time visiting to North York. I was craving for the Indian breakfast in morning, and I know people who say that , GTA is entirely well known for Indian food, offering delicious food with extremely affordable price. These statements were enough to convince me to go for an Indian breakfast rather than going to franchises - Tim hortons, Wendy’s etc. On afternoon, I visited this place, and it has nice ambience with decent spaciousness. I want to try the authentic Indian spice tea, as it has been some months since I went to any breakfast house and try a cup of tea with some food. I then ordered a cup of tea with Aloo Paratha. The cutting cup of tea was good in taste, providing the real taste of Indian spices - green cardamom, ginger,etc. They also served me an Aloo Paratha with Yogurt and Pickle, completing the proper sides. The aloo paratha was excellent in taste. Although, I have tried aloo paratha better than this, but I didn’t get any aloo paratha in $5.

Read moreChaska, conveniently located near York University, offers a variety of options that have both good and not-so-good aspects. I decided to try their masala fries, which were quite enjoyable, though I felt they could have benefited from a bit more seasoning to enhance the overall flavor. My friend chose the pani puri, and while it was decent, it didn't quite meet expectations. The potato stuffing seemed to lack the robust spices that typically make pani puri so delicious, and the pani itself was just alright.
One area for improvement would be the addition of chutneys, like the tamarind or mint-coriander chutney, which are traditionally served with pani puri. Their absence made the experience less satisfying, as the combination of the mild potato stuffing and pani was just okay. Overall, Chaska has potential and is worth a visit. With a few tweaks, especially in the pani puri's flavor and the inclusion of chutneys, it could become a favorite spot. I would recommend trying the masala fries, but maybe consider other options instead of...
