The club sandwich, or club house sandwich, is said to have originated in the Saratoga Club House in New York in 1894. And over the years, this sinful treat has found a huge fanbase across the globe. Toasted bread slices, a generous spread of mayonnaise between the layers of cooked chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomatoes and cheese make this typical version. This hard to resist treat could make a great addition to your packed lunch.
