Irish Chef, Alan Fisher, has broken two cooking-related Guinness World Records titles.
According to a statement from Guinness World Records on X, Fisher who owns a Japanese restaurant claimed the longest cooking marathon (individual) after clocking in a time of 119 hours 57 minutes. That is more than 24 hours longer than the previous record held by Nigerian chef Hilda Baci.
“Alan then claimed the longest baking marathon (individual), with a time of 47 hours 21 minutes. The previous record holder was Wendy Sandner (USA) with a time of 31 hours 16 minutes,” the statement added.
The statement says Alan took on both attempts back to back, “meaning he was at work in the kitchen for over 160 hours with just over a day of rest in between.”
