The bread is cooked twice: two slices dipped in custard and griddled in butter, then built into a sandwich whose sweet eggy shell is set against a salty center of egg, bacon, or ham.
French Dip
Thinly sliced roast beef on a French roll served with au jus for dipping; disputed origins between Philippe's and Cole's.

Beer-battered fish in a corn or flour tortilla with cabbage slaw; Baja California/San Diego.
