Can a Captain put as much fuel on his aircraft as he wishes?

Are there restrictions to the amount of fuel a captain can request for a specific flight? Can he take more than necessary in case of bad weather (fog etc) just in case? I would say no, but I read somewhere on here a pilot saying the captain could take as much as he asked for. Sounds wrong to me.
