Bradley has served four American Presidents, six Catholic Cardinals and numerous world leaders over his 23-year culinary（厨房的） career, according to his employer ARAMARK Sports and Entertainment, caterer² for the Asian Games.

He was also a head chef at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and currently is living in China where he has developed a taste for spicy³ Sichuan fare, the smoky aromas⁴（芳香） of Yunnan food and the delicate flavours of Cantonese cuisine⁵（烹饪） .

At the Asian Games, Bradley and his team are serving over 26,000 food items a day and will prepare 30 tonnes of rice and 60 tonnes of meat during the November 12-27 Asiad, the Huashang Daily reported.

One million bananas will be eaten during the Games.

"Of course (athletes) like to eat all kinds of fruits, they also like pizza and Italian pasta（意大利面食） . Young people all over the world like to eat this," Bradley told the paper.

"We have a five-day cycle, divided into 22 hot dishes and 12 vegetable dishes. Every day one or two new dishes are introduced to give the athletes a different flavour."

Bradley said fresh fruits were also the favorites of US presidents Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George Bush and his son George W. Bush.

The Bushes also liked to eat Texas barbeque, while Clinton ate so fast he always had stomach problems, Bradley said, adding that he once saw Clinton eat an apple in two bites.

At the Asian Games, Bradley oversees⁶（监督，审查） 51 chefs, including 20 Cantonese（广州的） cooks and numerous others from Asian countries like Japan and South Korea.

About 80 percent of the food at the Asian Games Town is procured⁷ in China, where food safety inspectors⁸ were carefully monitoring and testing for banned substances that may have entered the food chain, the paper added.
