The fried rice was cooked in a pan of 2.5 meters in diameter required the participation of 52 chefs and 20 helpers sent to the event by 35 local restaurants. They used 735 kilos of rice, chicken 260, 230, sucker, among other ingredients, described the president of the China-Costa Rican Association, Elizabeth Yung.

The contracting officer sent to the event Guinness, Ralph Hannah, said that to break the existing record for the largest Chinese rice “must have weighed more than 500 kilos and this weighs 1345.5”.

The preparation took more than six hours while it was cooking and chefs around rows stretching several hundred meters of passersby eager to try the food. Organizers estimate that about 7,000 people got to eat the dish.
