## What is Chasen?

Find matcha worth trying.

Chasen is a place-first map for matcha spots, real photo notes, local boards, and the drinks people actually ordered.

Open the map to find places around you. Tap into a spot for photos, ratings, tags, captions, and what people got. Save favorites, keep a Want list, and build your own matcha map as you try new places.

Post a note when you visit: add your rating, what you ordered, a photo, and details like wait, seating, sweetness, service, and vibe. If a spot is not on Chasen yet, you can add it for others to find.

Follow LA, OC, NYC, DFW, & HTX boards for ranked spots, editor picks, and local signal. Add friends to see their public photo notes without turning Chasen into a noisy feed.

Whether you are planning a matcha run, saving a cute cafe, or posting the drink you just tried, Chasen helps you find the places worth your time.
