Filipino home cooking strongly prefers Lutong-luto (well done), especially in soups and stews. Modern Manila steakhouses use standard English doneness terms. 'Hilaw-hilaw pa' (still a bit raw) is traditional but rarely requested — rare beef is a steakhouse phenomenon, not a home convention.

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
