Food safety, variety top menu at village
It is not easy to please the palates of more 10,000 nutrition-concerned athletes, but the organizers of the Beijing Games are determined to provide a wide range of cuisine and ensure food safety at the Olympic Village.
"The menus will be diverse, with food from many different countries," Kang Yi, director of the Olympic catering department, said.
"Chinese food will account for only 30 percent of the menu, although it is very popular around the world and we want athletes to experience our food culture," he said.
