The chow mein sandwich typically consists of a brown gravy-based chow mein mixture placed between halves of a hamburger-style bun, and is popular on Chinese-American restaurant menus throughout southeastern Massachusetts and parts of neighboring Rhode Island. Originating in Fall River, Massachusetts, in the 1930s or 1940s, the sandwich is not well known outside of a relatively small area of New England.
