Why call it a sandwich? Why not chow mein with bread? It's not a sandwich.
Anything between two pieces of bread can be called a sandwich.
Oh wait, there's another piece of bread under the chow mein?
Because a sandwich is composed of stuff in between bread? Although, I agree that in this case the definition is being used pretty loosely. I used to eat spaghetti sandwiches growing up....kind of getting hungry now.
I dunno, I've been eating it my whole life so I've never thought about it being weird. One of my favorite comfort foods.
Craziest stat is that there are probably 200 teriyaki restaurants in Seattle proper, and only 12 McDonald's.

I am not sure it can be identified as bread anymore but yes.
that's a bun plopped on top of chow mein
Yakisoba Pan (Yakisoba Sandwich) is a pretty popular item in Japan

First we have to figure out how you're supposed to eat it.Best thing about this thread is nobody has ever eaten it.

Sure. You use a fork, like most meals.
This thread instantly got me thinking that a karaage roll with some japanese mayo would be a delicious item.
Not that it has much to do with the OP - but if we're combining asian food items with bread rolls in a novel manner, then that'd be pretty high up on the list of awesome combinations.
As opposed to chow mien topped with half a roll which is... well as stupid as it looks and sounds.
Is that a noodle that decided to morph into a delicious strip of pork?

Ah yes, all the best sandwiches require a fork.
Does that still count as a sandwich? Does just having two pieces of bread tossed in give things sandwich status? I feel like you have to pick it up.Sure. You use a fork, like most meals.
Ah yes, all the best sandwiches require a fork.
To be honest as a Euro, I find the idea of a "sloppy Joe" horrifying.
Chilli Con Carne...in a bun?
His does one even goabout eating that over wearing it down their front?

This is just a piece of bread on top of chow mein 😆
This is actually true though.Ah yes, all the best sandwiches require a fork.
Here's an Italian variation

I've lived in North Dartmouth and Fairhaven.
The bun is pointless. It's a dumb meal.

kinda embarrassing? idk
it's all i could think of from the town i grew up in.
Lmao how do people do it? Fucking amazing
yooooooooooo
i need a Shrimp Chow Mein sandwich in my life.
So its like the yakisoba sandwich. I ate one of those in Japan a couple of years ago. The bread was like a Hawaiian roll. Good but not an all the time kind of food.
They need to make a General Tsao chicken sandwich.
Definitely. Or Tonkatsu.
