Club Sandwich - the classic triple-decker

Club sandwich is an elegant triple-decker sandwich that has become a staple of hotel restaurants and cafes worldwide. It consists of three slices of toasted bread layered with chicken (or turkey), crispy bacon, lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and mayonnaise. The sandwich is traditionally cut diagonally into quarters and held together with cocktail sticks. It originated in American gentlemen's clubs at the end of the 19th century.
