triple-deckers

Stacked bread creations

Triple-deckers are sandwiches made with three slices of bread and two layers of filling—the classic club sandwich is the prototype.

The term also applies to three-story residential buildings common in New England, particularly Boston, where each floor is a separate apartment: My grandmother grew up in a triple-decker in Dorchester.
