There are plenty of them in CA. We tried to go to the Hai Di Lao in Arcadia a few weeks ago and gave up after waiting an hour. I know Hai Di Lao is the trendy hot pot chain in China now, but there are so many countless mom and pop hot pot places there, that I'd never go to a chain.
This is some random hot pot place near the Hong Qiao airport in Shanghai we stumbled upon as soon as we left our hotel. It was so good and cheap.
My Thanksgiving Dinner in 2011 was spent Chengdu. It's a new trend to decorate a restaurant in the Revolution motif and these guys really had it down, even period-correct uniforms for the staff.
This was hands down the best hot pot I ever had in Chongqing. I had taken the bus from Chengdu and the girl next to me started helping me with my Sudoku puzzles. We ended up hanging out for a few days and she definitely steered me to the right places to eat.
