EN: pair, set of two; a beef stew dish
Can mean a 'pair' of shoes, socks, or lovers. But let's be real, 99% of the time, it refers to that glorious braised beef stew served with garlic rice ('sinangag') and a bowl of clear broth. The ultimate 'after-inuman' or rainy day comfort food. 'Tara, mag-pares tayo!' is a love language.
Mula sa Espanyol na 'pares' (pairs, plural of 'par').
While it literally means 'pair', its culinary meaning is extremely prominent in modern Filipino culture. The dish is called 'pares' because the beef is 'paired' with rice.
