About

A club sandwich was one of the first dishes that I ever had to make – this was at the Amsterdam Hilton. The coffee shop was always packed, and the club sandwich was one of its most popular choices. This is my version and I hope you enjoy it. It’s having just one slice of toast that makes this ‘Open’. Make it as a starter for dinner parties – nobody will expect to be served a sandwich!
