What is Kwailo?

Hong Kong term for (white) Westerners.

Can be an insult when used with "sei": "sei gweilo", means "damned foreigner"

Also spelled as gweilo or gwailo.

A western woman is called "kweipo" (or gweipo/gwaipo).

From a Sydney Chinese restaurant review:

"The yum cha is really kwailo but good. Tasty fresh and well priced (for kwailo)."
