The new Metro Ayala rises from the ashes and emerges like a phoenix, making a grand comeback as The Metro Stores’ flagship store formally reopens this Friday, January 29.

**Level 7** – Food Avenue, Activity Center, Credit and Collection

The Food Avenue on the 7th level is the crowning jewel of Metro Ayala. It reminded me so much of “Kopitiam”s in Singapore. Metro Ayala has definitely come a long way. But it still remains our favorite department store since it opened in 1994.
