Hilda Baci’s record for the longest cooking marathon is broken by Irish chef Alan Fisher

Two new world records that an Irish cook has broken were announced by Guinness World Records on X. The world records for the longest baking marathon and the longest cooking marathon were set by Alan Fisher. Even more amazing is the fact that he only took one day off between breaking both records.

Fisher surpassed Hilda Baci’s record by over 24 hours, breaking the first record after cooking nonstop for 119 hours and 57 minutes. He baked for 47 hours and 21 minutes to set the second record. He shattered Wendy Sandner’s record with this.

“Although records are meant to be broken, I may hold both at once for the time being. To keep the firm running, there are a lot of late nights, early mornings, worries, and financial strains. Put your head down and keep going. Fisher told Guinness World Records (GWR) that “breaking these records is a fitting way to share our story and create a little awareness about the Irish connection here in Matsue.”

Guinness World Records tweeted, “Hilda Baci, the Nigerian culinary queen, has been dethroned.” At his restaurant in Japan, Irish chef Alan Fisher spent an amazing 119 hours and 57 minutes in the kitchen.”
