Ghanaian chef, Ebenezer Smith, also known as Millennium Chef Smith, remains resolute in his mission to break the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual, by cooking non-stop for 50 days or 1200 hours.

Chef Smith began his cook-a-thon on February 1, 2024, at the Amadia Shopping Centre at Spintex, Accra.

As of the publication of this piece, he had successfully completed 800 hours of continuous cooking.

Chef Smith is hoping to beat the current record of 119 hours set by Alan Fisher.

Some of the famous faces who showed up to cheer him on included Praye Tietia, Yaw Tog, Amerado, Kofi Jamar, and the Asakaa Boys.
