History

The holiday commemorates the centenary of the restaurant that first served the sandwich, which was on November 12th, 1908. It is believed that the restaurant in Los Angeles, Cole’s, is the birthplace of the sandwich, though there is another establishment, Philippe’s, which also claims this title. Cole’s was closed for a time but has since been reopened by a new owner in 2008 and is still open today!
