About Jiralocas

We are Jiralocas - a group of students studying Spanish and English in The Community College of City University of Hong Kong. The name Jiralocas is combined with two Spanish words: 'jirafa', which means 'giraffe', and 'loca' which means 'crazy'(feminine). As giraffes prefer to eat the greenest and freshest leaves from the treetops, we also favor delicious food, because we don't just eat to live, we live to eat. We therefore think that we are like giraffes, except on top of that, we are also a bit crazy. Thus conclude our earth-shattering name - Jiralocas - 'a bunch of crazy giraffes'.

Members of Jiralocas:
Sonia Lee, Estrella Kwan, Vina Shum, Ester Leung and Estela Shang.

About Tastin-HK.com

This website is part of our bilingual project, a free dining guide in Spanish and English for foreigners in Hong Kong. The guide focuses on authentic, delicious and inexpensive Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong that are seldom introduced to foreigners, but are in fact very popular among the local people. Our aim is to promote these restaurants, as well as real Chinese delicious food to more foreigners. At the same time, we would also like to promote learning Spanish(language) in Hong Kong.
