Longest restaurant table-world record
set in El Campello
EL CAMPELLO, Alicante, Spain-- More than 2,000 people
sat down to dinner together at a 4 127.29 feet (1,258 metres)
long table-setting the new world record for the Longest
restaurant table. 
In fact, it was made up of tables from at
least 60 different restaurants in El Campello (Alicante) assembled
in a line nearly a mile long. (enlarge

Despite its length, every single seat was
occupied during the slap-up meal thrown on by the restaurants
taking part in the zany event on Saturday night.
Each eatery that had contributed tables was allowed
to decorate these however they wished, use their own staff
to wait on the diners and serve up the dishes offered on their
own menus.
A notary attended the event once everyone was
seated and tucking in, in order to confirm that the table’s
length – 1,258 metres – had in fact smashed the previous
world record for the Longest restaurant table held
for two years by a restaurant in Vienna
(Austria). Back in 2007, a public meal was held with tables
fitted together in a line measuring 1,176 metres.
