Club Sandwich

Although the United States could be called a sandwich festival from one end of the year to the other, it is the summer season, naturally, when the fête reaches its zenith. The consensus seems to be that midday, in particular, is the time for a cool brow and a cold stove, and a sandwich with a tall drink just fills the bill.

The club sandwich is probably the original American version of the hero, submarine, torpedo, grinder or what have you, but both styles are popular today.
