The Guinness World Records clarified that there is no grace period for another chef to make an attempt on Hilda's record.

"That was just a rumour, records can be broken anytime! The record body further says Alan Fisher, who owns a restaurant in Japan cooked for 119 hours 57 minutes which is longer than Hilda's 97 hours and 11 minutes".
