Ms. Ligaya Piadoche, owner of Heaven’s Touch Cuisine, prepares packed foods for the food drive.
 She is one of the chosen businesses of the Lark x The Fat Kid Inside campaign.

Among the casualties of the ongoing pandemic are food businesses located near universities in Manila. With distance learning taking the place of classrooms, campuses remain empty. Because of this, businesses lost the majority of their customers, greatly affecting their daily income. 

Heaven’s Touch Cuisine is one of those eateries directly affected by the extended community quarantine. For this reason, its owners decided to enter their food business for consideration in the Lark x The Fat Kid Inside campaign.

During my first trip to Boracay, I chanced upon a quaint store that is quite familiar to me. You see when I was in Elementary, I used to collect stationeries and stickers. At a very young age, I was familiar with Precious Moments, that when I found a store that sells dolls and figurines, I definitely must have one. Going back to Manila, I had the mermaid Precious Moments doll because it symbolizes the sea, and Boracay is one of the most memorable beaches I've been to.
