Baro’t Saya
 What is Baro’t Saya?
• The baro’t saya is the national dress of the Philippines. Barong being its
masculine equivalent. Both are all traditionally made of piña though other
materials that are not piña are also used in some baro't saya and barong.
• The early pre-colonial clothing of ethnic groups such as the Tagalogs and
Visayans included both the baro and saya made from silk in matching
colours, this style was exclusively worn by the women from the upper caste,
while those of lower castes wore baro made from pounded white bark fibre.
Barong Tagalog
 What is Barong Tagalog?
• The Barong Tagalog, more commonly known as simply Barong
(and occasionally called Baro), is an embroidered formal shirt and
considered the national dress of the Philippines. It is lightweight
and worn untucked over an undershirt. The Barong Tagalog was
popularized as formal wear by President Ramón Magsaysay, who
wore it to most private and state functions, including his own
inauguration.
Sinigang
 What is Sinigang?
• Sinigang is a Filipino soup or stew characterized by its sour and savoury
taste most often associated with tamarind (Filipino: sampalok). It is one of
the more popular viands in Filipino cuisine, and is related to the Malaysian
dish singgang.
• Sinigang is often assumed to be the national food of the Philippines because
of how common and how long it has been around, but it is in the top ten of
the Filipino specialties along with lechon, adobo, and lumpia. This dish is
called sinigang because that specific word means stew which is exactly what
the dish is.
