In 2000, Mr. Clinton dined at the upscale Bukharam restaurant in New Delhi, India. Here, the former US President enjoyed a special dish of lamb, tandoori chicken, lentils and toast.
This dish was so impressive that Mr. Clinton returned to the restaurant three times to enjoy it.
Since then, the Bukharam restaurant and Indian media have dubbed the dish the "Presidential meal".
In 2004, Mr. Clinton tried hot dogs at a roadside stand in Reykjavik, Iceland. Thanks to the former U.S. President, the stand quickly became famous around the world.
The stall owner shared: "When I saw Mr. Clinton on the street, I shouted out loud, 'We have the best hot dogs in the world.' He then happily came over to us and enjoyed it."
