Just curious, do you think a club sandwich should be served hot or cold?
I’ve always thought they should be cold. A few years ago I received one in a restaurant that was served hot. I wasn’t a fan of it. I think the bread should be toasted, not grilled. And the components of the sandwich (ham, turkey, bacon, American and Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise) should all be cold.
Today I received another hot one. When I picked up one of the quarter pieces I realized the bread was grilled, not toasted, as it was greasy. Then when I took my first bite I realized everything inside was hot. When the waitress asked if our food was okay I told her I was surprised the sandwich was hot rather than cold. She said “ we get that a lot!”
Seems to me they should note that on the menu. But lesson learned, from now on I will always ask if the club sandwich is served hot or cold.
