The McDonald sandwich, named after its creator and chief chef at Selfridges Scott McDonald, commands one of the heftiest price tags around because its main filling is Wagyu beef, the BBC reported. Other ingredients include fresh Lobe foie gras, black truffle mayonnaise, brie de meaux, roquet, red pepper and mustard confit and English plum tomatoes, all sandwiched between 24-hour fermented sour dough bread.
Selfridges food and catering director Ewan Venters, said: “Well it is definitely a very healthy, a very hearty sandwich. We’ve have some fantastic reaction already from customers who are looking forward to coming in to buy one.”
