This Monte Cristo sandwich actually appeared in American cookbooks as early as the 1930s to 1960s. The most traditional version is made with French toast dipped in egg batter, layered with ham and cheese, and then pan-fried or deep-fried.At Disneyland’s New Orleans Square Café, this treat is deep-fried to perfection—crispy on the outside, while the inside features rich, creamy cheese, ham, and turkey between slices of bread, all dusted with sweet powdered sugar that makes it impossible to stop at just one bite!

If you haven’t had the chance to visit Disneyland—or if you’ve tried it and just can’t get enough—you can also head to“Left左派”in Taichung to enjoy it. This spot, known for its industrial-style café by day and cozy bar by night, is quite popular in Taichung, and its fried Monte Cristo sandwich is a fan favorite!Left左派 fries the sandwich until golden and crispy, then drizzles it with sweet maple syrup. One bite brings an explosion of savory, sweet, and aromatic flavors with the melted cheese—truly a must-try when you’re there!It’s just as good as the Disneyland version.
