Paris is the most expensive city in the world for ordering a club sandwich

Although I love everything French, I am always exposed to be an American ( to my French friends) in my love (since is was 21 years old) for a cold Martini and a Club Sandwich. Not that I don't love Foie Gras with anything mind you, but 'put to the wall' Its the Club sandwich that is my first love when it comes to sandwiches.
According to a survey of 750 hotels in 26 countries, Paris is the most expensive city in the world for ordering a club sandwich. After surveying the price of the iconic triple-decker sandwich among three to five-star properties around the world, Paris, Geneva and Oslo emerged as the most expensive -- and therefore -- the priciest cities to visit, according to online booking site Hotels.com. Their Club Sandwich Index (CSI) is meant to serve as a barometer of travel costs for globetrotters planning their upcoming vacations. Here are the averages prices of a club sandwich -- a staple on nearly every hotel menu -- around the world: Country / City Average Club Sandwich Price (USD) France - Paris $33.10
 Switzerland - Geneva $32.56 Norway - Oslo $30.50 Japan - Tokyo $27.65 Italy - Rome $24.22 Finland - Helsinki $22.66 Sweden - Stockholm $22.14 Australia - Canberra $19.76 Denmark - Copenhagen $18.87 UK - London $18.71 Hong Kong $18.35 South Korea - Seoul $18.06 Germany - Berlin $17.77 Brazil - Brasilia $17.77 USA - New York $16.93 Holland - Amsterdam $16.64 Russia - Moscow $16.38 Spain - Madrid $16.20 Canada - Toronto $16.05 Ireland - Dublin $15.57 Singapore $14.79 China - Beijing $14.48 Colombia - Bogota $14.09 Argentina - Buenos Aires $10.71 Mexico - Mexico City $10.19 India - New Delhi $9.57
