Toasted sourdough pastrami sandwich, with spinach, red onion, avocado, red capsicum, homemade pickles, mayo and mustard. It was decidedly too big to eat in typical sandwich form, so this was how it was consumed.
Wrap form (cos lettuce instead of spinach):
I think we should be consistent and call regular sandwiches “closed faced”. Would you like a closed faced ham and cheese?
Am open sandwich is not a thing. It's just bread with stuff on it. A sandwich requires things to be sandwiched. You need to be able to get it all in your mouth at once. A wrap is not a sandwich either. It's wrapped. Not sandwiched. Willing to die on this hill
So, is a hot dog a wrap, then? What if the bun separates into two pieces? Does it transform into a sandwich?
It's a category error. It's not made of sliced bread. A sandwich is made of sliced bread. Not buns, not rolls, not barms not bread cakes. Like a wagon can have 4 wheels but it doesn't make it a car. A sandwich is sliced bread with stuff inside.
Not arguing, I looked up what the different types of sandwiches are, and Wikipedia does include open-faced sandwiches.. So maybe it's just one of those things that are more of an opinion thing, or varies by country?
Though I do agree, that "sandwich", in the traditional sense, is ingredients between two slices of bread.

I guess I'm a structure purist
Gimme a ham'n'cheese and slap a veil on it!
I think a sandwich is inherently enclosed by bread.
As a counter proposal, can I suggest we call this a "Bread plate meal"?
Closed-face it is!
