"Hai Di Lao is one of the most well known international hot pot chains in the world. Known for pampering its guests with an overflow waiting area with complimentary snacks, restrooms decked out with spa-like amenities, and robot servers for when the real-life servers are occupied, the restaurant offers Kobe beef, a complimentary sauce bar, and the option to have not just two, but four types of broths. Don’t eat and run. The nightly face-changing dance – a form of Sichuan opera wherein the dancer’s face mask magically changes during the course of the dance – never ceases to amaze." - Minh Truong, Mai Pham
