Beef Pares

Beef Pares are cubed beef briskets cooked with different spices and tenderized to
perfection. The aroma of this dish alone is really enticing and the flavor is so captivating
as if someone is whisphering in your subconcious mind to go and get more.

I was first introduced to this dish in a local Tapsi House in Las Pinas. Back then, this dish
is just a new addition to the menu. This captured my attention just right after my first bite
and from then on I became a believer. These days, you can buy a complete Beef Pares
meal from different eateries (these are Tapsilog joints turned Pares Houses).
I usually have this any time of the day. During my college years, I visit a nearby Goodies
Pares near my campus (its the one in Leon Guinto and Quirino in Manila). A definite PigOut place for me, sometime I even order extra rice or two with a Pepsi or Coke by my
side.
Try this sumptuous Beef Pares recipe.
