club sandwich

Toothpick-held lunch

A club sandwich is a layered sandwich made with three slices of toasted bread, typically filled with sliced turkey or chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise.

The triple-decker construction is held together with toothpicks and cut into triangular quarters for serving: I ordered a club sandwich and fries for lunch.
