A sandwich knows no boundaries. The brilliant thing about it is the fact that many countries, and the cities within them, have found unique ways to transcend what we would typically think of as an “ordinary” sandwich. Sandwiches are not just your classic BLT or egg and mayo flavours anymore; they can be so much more than that. There are still ongoing debates on what a sandwich should actually constitute, but we won’t get too technical here. In this list of our favourite sandwiches in the Klang Valley, some may surprise you but trust us: they’re worth trying.

If you’re someone with varied tastes, VCR Stacks brings together sandwiches from near and far with a modern twist. Many of you might be familiar with VCR, and Stacks is just an extension of it, focusing on all things bread. Notable items on their menu include the Reuben Pastrami (for that New York deli feel), the Four Cheese Toastie (a classic comfort food), and the Egg Sando (for all the weebs). Aside from their stacks, another must-try is their various tartines.

2. The Chicken Sandwich: FOWLBOYS

Is a burger a sandwich? We argue the affirmative. It’s hard enough watching endless food trends that are based in America blow up on TikTok, with the most prominent one being Popeye’s Chicken Sandwich back in 2019. The argument of whether Popeyes or Chic-fil-a has better chicken sandwiches seems a little far from reality for most of us. Luckily, Fowlboys has become the perfect alternative for us Malaysians. We can now get a taste of the delicious, buttery Southern-style fried chicken with the Motherclucker or O.G. Sandwich. Better yet, lay it between two fluffy buns and it becomes the perfect chicken sandwich. Fowlboys also allows customers to pick different spice levels (let’s see if you can really tahan that Malaysian spice), all while accompanied by different potato sides.

Caviar and foie gras in a sandwich? That is luxurious. Yakuza by Dark oozes decadence by incorporating some of the most highly sought out products in the culinary world. Their most popular dish on the menu is the Yakuza M8 Wagyu Katsu Sando with Foie Gras, a combination that packs a punch. Only available through delivery, this is the perfect sandwich for those that enjoy the finer things in life. Yakuza by Dark pride themselves on using high-quality ingredients that blend together well in a seemingly simplistic sandwich.
