Manda! Thought of you when I ran across a Reuters article that talked about a new record buffet that made the Guinness Book of World Records this week. Manda and I both share a fond appreciation for food.
To break the previous record, 500 dishes were needed to create a new record buffet. Executive Chef, George Bargisen, at the Las Vegas Hilton, spent some 24 hours overseaing preparation of 510 different dishes. 40 soups, 100 salads, and 150 desserts were available. Nadine Causey, a Guinness Book of World Records official flew from London to verify and certify that a new record buffet had been reached.
Each person was charged $7.50 for the buffet. All proceeds were donated to America's Second Harvest, a hunger relief charity. Pretty cool, huh!
Below is the article from which I gathered the information, published by Reuters, on Wednesday, March 29, 2006:
