Start your cooking journey with Metro Cookware


You step into a kitchen store and suddenly, it feels like a different world. There are endless aisles of cookware, gadgets, and utensils—each claiming to be essential. You’re not even sure how to boil an egg, yet here you are, staring down rows of tools you’ve never used. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
Actress and cooking novice Iza Calzado knows exactly how that feels. “The kitchen has always overwhelmed me,” she admits. “There are so many things to figure out, and I didn’t know where to start.” But like many of us, Iza wanted to learn. She wanted to be able to prepare meals in her own kitchen—not just for others, but for herself.
That’s why she teamed up with Metro Cookware (METRO) to create a beginner-friendly kitchen set that takes the guesswork out of cooking. Introducing Iza’s Metro Starter Set: a curated trio of kitchen essentials made to simplify your journey into the world of home cooking.
Iza’s Metro Starter Set

Inside the bundle, you’ll find:
- A Stainless Steel Pan for versatile everyday cooking
- A Nylon Solid Spoon for stirring, mixing, and serving
- A Nylon Slotted Turner perfect for flipping and lifting without scratching your cookware
Each tool is thoughtfully chosen to help beginners gain confidence. Plus, the cooking tools are BPA-free, made from heat-resistant nylon, and safe to use on non-stick surfaces—so you can cook with peace of mind.
“I may be a cooking novice,” Iza shares, “but with Metro, I’m slowly learning. And most importantly, I’m gaining confidence. Everyone starts somewhere—I choose to start with Metro.”

Her story is proof that you don’t need a full kitchen arsenal to begin. You just need a few safe, reliable tools that you’ll actually use—and that won’t intimidate you. The Metro Starter Set is that starting point. It’s not just about cooking—it’s about trying. About showing up in your own kitchen and saying, “I can do this.”
Whether you’re a student living solo, a young professional trying to make healthier choices, or someone who’s just always let others handle the cooking—it’s never too late to start. And when you do, having the right tools makes all the difference.
Iza’s Metro Starter Set is available exclusively at SM Home from August 1 to 31, 2025—a limited-time offer designed to get more people like you started on your cooking journey.
So go ahead. Take that first step. Grab a spoon, fire up the stove, and see what you can create. Because cooking doesn’t have to be complicated; just cook with confidence. Start with Metro.
