Nueva Vizcaya town eyes record for longest tilapia grill

- Charlie Lagasca -
DIADI, Nueva Vizcaya — After successfully pulling off a 4.8-kilometers flying fish grill last month in the coastal town of Santa Ana, the province is now bracing for another bid for a world record. It’s now the turn of this province’ northernmost mountain town to aim for a Guiness world record for the longest tilapia grill.

The town conducted a dry-run yesterday for the longest tilapia grill, which will be held later this year.

Mayor Marvic Padilla said that yesterday’s 100-meter tilapia fish grill was in preparation for the town’s bid for an entry into the prestigious Guinness Book of World Records for the longest tilapia fish grill.

The town, she said, is preparing to come up with a five-kilometer tilapia grill by the end of the year.

Diadi is about an hour’s drive from the capital town of Bayombong. It is a producer one of the country’s most delectable tilapia, which earned for it the monicker "tilapia capital of the province."

Tilapia, whose scientific name is tilapia nilotica, is also known as Saint Peter’s fish.

Diadi, one of this province’s upland towns, is host to hundreds of tilapia fish cages, especially located within the mighty Magat River here.
