A famous Italian chef says he is creating a trio of sandwiches in the image of a skyscraper complex being constructed in Milan. Chef Gualtiero Marchesi, 79, said he already has the sandwiches, inspired by the Milan CityLife complex, planned out in his head but he is not yet divulging any of the ingredients.
While the world waits for Chef Marchesi, here are some other skyscraper sandwiches for your consideration.

The only thing missing was Haggis.
