You know the expression “your eyes a bigger than your belly”? Well, whoever ordered this is certainly a culprit.

ASK Italian has has attempted the Guinness World Record for ‘Giantipasti’ with an antipasti board that stretches the length of the restaurant!  The board, which features a mouth-watering array of 62,100g of ingredients, includes 16,000g of cured meats, 13,000g of cheese and 13,000g of vegetables across an antipasti board measuring 10 metres long to set the first ever record of its kind.

It took a dedicated team three hours to build the feast for guests to enjoy, with world renowned chef Theo Randall chipping in to etch his name in the record books.

The board was laid with carefully selected ingredients from ASK Italian’s four new antipasti boards, leaving guests spoilt for choice with a range of smoked prosciutto, rosemary & sea salt bread, fioncchiona salami and a variety of Italian cheeses.

Theo Randall said: “It was a great experience to work with ASK Italian’s team to create ‘Giantipasti’. Antipasti has an important role in Italy to draw people together, prompting interaction through the act of sharing and bringing the conversation to life. Giantipasti is the perfect way for ASK Italian to bring this concept to life.”
