Only two restaurants cater to Spanish tastes in Guangzhou, as Spanish food has traditionally not been very popular here. The oldest is Toro Toro in Jianshe liu Road near the Garden Hotel.
Toro, meaning "bull" in Spanish, is a showcase for the passionate Spanish personality. Here, walls are painted rough khaki, wooden window frames sport white cotton curtains commonly used in Spanish villages, red blossoming carnations adorn the tables and Flamenco music is in the air. All combine to suggest the setting of a relaxed back-alley restaurant in Spain.
