Guo hotpot originated in Chengdu, Sichuan. Guo Zeng, the founder of Guo Hotpot, sold the bottom of the pot at a stall in Jinli Ancient Street, Chengdu. Because the bottom of the pot tastes good and business is booming, Guo started to run his own restaurant and constantly improved the dishes, which eventually developed into today's Guo Lao hot pot. Now, Guo Hotpot has become a famous catering brand in Chengdu, which is deeply loved by consumers.
