Why you should try the Langham Club Sandwich

Have you tried the Langham Club yet? Langham Club Sandwich that is. Well you ought to. Why? The Langham Club was voted the Best Club Sandwich of the year at The 2015 Gourmet Traveller Hotel Awards earlier this month, and that’s in addition to taking out New Hotel Of The Year and the 2015 Hotel Of The Year, the most awards any one hotel has received in the history of the event.

“Best Club Sandwich represents complete indulgence for any hotelier; so we are thrilled to take out what can only be described as Australia’s coolest foodie award” said General Manager, Sonia Lefevre.

How did the magazine choose the best club sandwich? They sent reviewers around the country to stay at Australia’s hotels and tried their club sandwiches. The reviews were 100% anonymous.

So what’s in Australia’s best club sandwich? The freshest and premium ingredients. Six white-toast triangles skewered in a row, stratified with leg ham cut from the bone, house-smoked chicken, two layers of curried egg, lettuce leaves and cucumber. A combination which received an astonishing 9/10 from a panel of Gourmet Traveller critics.

You can have the Langham Club from the Palm Court, a vibrant and luxurious lounge and dining area of The Langham, Sydney with their plush seats drenched in natural light. Indulge on it with a cocktail served by one of the lovely multilingual wait staffs. I was impressed when one of the wait staffs of European descent advised me that my surname meant “King” in the Chinese language having studied that language for many years. I enjoyed a coffee served in beautiful Wedgwood Fine Bone China afterwards.

Be sure to have a healthy appetite before you go and try it or bring a friend to share it. It is delicious. With its layers, anyone with a firm grip can make all the goodness within comply, squishing down just enough for that first juicy bite…

Enjoy the perfection of a well-made club sandwich only at The Langham Sydney. A very fine sandwich indeed.
