City for cavorting pairs (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

paris

'city' is the definition.
(Paris is an example)

'cavorting pairs' is the wordplay.
'cavorting' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pairs' anagrammed gives 'PARIS'.

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for paris that I've seen before include "captivated Helen" , "where plaster comes from?" , "European capital - Greek hero" , "Helen's abductor" , "'''I love ... in the springtime'' (Cole Porter) (5)'" .)
