The Irish chef, Alan Fisher rose to fame and hit major headlines on 7th November, 2023 after breaking the Guinness World Record for longest cooking marathon previously held by Hilda Baci of Nigeria.
Alan Fisher is the owner and chef at Kyojin Stewhouse in Japan and broke two cooking-related Guinness World Records titles, the British organization said on Tuesday, 7 November.
First, he broke the record for the longest cooking marathon (individual) after clocking in a time of 119 hours 57 minutes, more than 24 hours longer than the previous record held by Nigerian chef, Hilda Baci.
Alan Fisher 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.
Alan’s feat came almost five months after the Guinness World Record confirmed Hilda’s adventurous cooking. The Nigerian broke the 87 hours and 45 minutes record held by India’s Lata Tondon since 2019.
What’s even more impressive is that 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.
