Well, Ive heard of a coffee “pairer” before, so I would assume they were the same thing.
Most coffee has undertones, such as fruit, nutty, spicy, etc.
When you “pair” the coffee together with the right food, the food brings out these flavors.
For enjoying a coffee-food pairing, and really taste the flavors, you would take a bit of the food (usually a pastry or sweet), leave it in your mouth, and take a sip of the coffee.
But, there are a lot of foods and coffees that go well together - think like a “breakfast” coffee, compared to a “after-dinner” coffee.
Hope that helped!
