Chef Gbolabo Adebakin, popularly known as Captain Gibbs, has revealed the extensive planning and behind the scenes efforts that went into helping a Nigerian chef, Hilda Baci, achieve her Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon.
Adebakin, who is the Convener of The Nigeria Food Summit, said the team behind the record attempt spent about one week preparing for the event, despite the cooking marathon itself lasting about four days.
According to him, the preparation involved designing menus, sourcing ingredients, managing logistics, planning staff welfare and ensuring compliance with Guinness World Records rules.
