A throwback Thursday, indeed, just happened to me last January 30, 2014. I did not plan anything that day. It was just an ordinary working day for me but that field working Thursday enabled me to go back to memory lane as I passed by Senator Gil Puyat Avenue (Formerly Buendia) where I saw Precious Moments Cafe, Giftshop and Restaurant. I stopped for a moment but my curiosity brought me to the establishment and checked what was in-stored in the said place.

Precious Moments is a known brand of lovable angel figurines and I've known this stuff since grade school. I vividly recalled that I used to have notebooks with Precious Moments design when I was a schoolgirl. Until now, I do own a photo album with Precious Moments as cover. That's how I love these cutesy angels dearly.
As I researched about this heavenly place in Makati, Precious Moment Manila is owned by Mr. Jojo Sonillo and Mr. Samuel Butcher, the creator of this world renowned brand. This quiet corner in Makati is a cafe, gift store and events place rolled into one.

I asked one of the staff for the approximate capacity of the events area of Precious Moments. He said that it can accommodate 80 persons. So, for intimate and small gatherings, Precious Moments Manila is a perfect venue to hold one and celebrate life's precious moments.
After viewing those nostalgic dolls, angelic figurines and other specialty items around the area, I was invited by the staff to try their food. So he handed me the menu and helped me select food for my hungry tummy.
The following are the food I have chosen during my short stay. By the way, they served really good and delectable food. I was very special that day because I was really pampered during my stay.

| Iced choco macadamia drink and black forest cupcake |
 |
| Seafood fettuccine (good for 2-3 persons) |
I was not able to finish my pasta dish. The serving was meant for sharing. By the way, I did a solo visit at the place.
 |
| Happy Me! :) |
After I had my short memorable stay at Precious Moments, I told myself to return to this place and bring my dearest family and friends here to create a new precious moment.

| Thanks for sharing a Precious Moments with me. |
