Food Post: Moonleaf Tea Shop (Ortigas Home Depot)

05.15.2013 by Leah // 2 Comments

I have friends who really love milk tea drinks, and there is one who never fails to post her milk tea drinks over at Instagram.  She gets most of them from the Moonleaf Tea Shop and I wasn’t surprised at her choice – I’ve tried their milk tea before and I liked it too.

This got me thinking. Maybe I’d survive summer more beautifully if I had milk teas everyday like my friend did, instead of just water, coffee and tea, hehe!

Anyway, it’s never too late for my milk teas.   Not after rediscovering Moonleaf Tea Shop during one of our Saturday afternoon trips in which we found ourselves at the Greenhills-Ortigas area.  There is a newly-opened Moonleaf Tea Shop at the Ortigas Home Depot which we found after walking around the block, and in that hot afternoon heat, it felt like finding a sanctuary in the middle of the desert.

We wasted no time in ordering our milk teas:  Wintermelon Milk Tea for me and Honey Milk Tea for AJ.

Both were refreshing, delicious and filled with chewy black pearls!   I love munching on chewy black pearls, they make milk tea a truly enjoyable treat!

I couldn’t help but notice the wide array of desserts available there.  From cupcakes to brownies to macaroons to cookies – I think they have it all!

They also have my favorite whoopie pies from My Cookie Lab!  I took home some of these.  Happiness!

This cork board wall full of colorful notes is eye catching.  It’s stylishly cluttered, hehe!

Yes, they have free wifi here!  A magnet for wifi-addicts like me!

Can’t agree more.

So whenever you pass by Ortigas, have a stop at the Ortigas Home Depot for some refreshing and healthy tea drinks (plus yummy dessert) at Moonleaf Tea Shop and enjoy free wifi throughout your stay (unlike in some coffee shops where you are billed for a limited wifi use).  Indeed, “milk tea break” is the new coffee break!

Moonleaf Tea Shop – Ortigas Home Depot is open Mondays to Sundays, 11 am to 5 am (the following day).   Like their Facebook page here and be updated of their new products and promos!

    I love Moonleaf too! Unfortunately, their branch that is near to our place don’t have the pastries yet. Hopefully soon 🙂 Aside from the great food and drinks, a friend has a memorable story about their post-it wall. Hihi *kilig* You gave me another idea of what to blog 😉 Btw, my longchamp post is still pending 😉

    I’m a milk tea fan. There’s a newly-opened Moonleaf store at SM Save More-Nagtahan, the nearest to our place. I better check that one out soon! 🙂

Hi Daddy! Lapit na ang birthday mo, and you will c Hi Daddy! Lapit na ang birthday mo, and you will celebrate it in heaven na ☁️☁️☁️ Pero kasama mo pa rin kami magce-celebrate. Same as last year, we will celebrate it at home dahil may #covid_19 pa rin. You will remember that last year, yours is the first birthday we celebrated in quarantine. I just came from Baguio (for work) and  someone from our group tested positive. Hindi na tayo nakapagpa-picture dahil puro nasa #covid_19 ang attention natin. We miss you, daddy! I hope you like your flowers today, mas marami na green leaves kaysa flowers. Just the way you like it. 💚💚 #theoriginalplantito

It's so spacious and so safe in there. I wore double masks (KN95 and fabric mask from @quins.ph) and my favorite scrub cap from @unisol.ph_ with buttons on both sides for the mask ear loops. It kept my ears from hurting and kept my hair intact too. Never mind if I look more like a nurse than a patient here 😁 Safety first over porma 😜
Taken in February last year just as Japan was star Taken in February last year just as Japan was starting to feel the effects of the #covid_19 pandemic. Hiroshima is a beautiful city and here I was able to take off my face mask because halos walang tao sa mga tourist sites that we went to. Hindi lang halata here but my hands were already burned because of too much washing with disinfectant alcohol 😬

So grateful to have visited this historic city in this extraordinary time.
