I grew up in SoCalif, and learned about chorizo when it was virtually unknown among non-Mexicans. You can imagine my surprise the first time I ordered a dish on the east coast that listed chorizo. This would've been back in the 80s in NYC or NJ or thereabouts, when real Mexican food was still largely unavailable.
What I got was delicious, but I knew nothing about the Portuguese stuff, so it was a surprise. I still regard it as one of my best early educational travel experiences
Which reminds me. Another breakfast "sandwich" I love is a machaca con huevos burrito. Yum.

CHOURICO: Made from the same good meats as Linguica, Chourico (pronounced shoor-reese) has a heartier spiced flavor. Its main difference from Linguica is that it is a hot sausage whereas Linguica is mild. Gaspar's Chourico is available in mild, regular and extra hot versions and the regular is available as round patties, franks, and ground in addition to the traditional sausage shape!

One of my favorite breakfast sandwiches is the ITALIAN FRITTATA Sandwich from "Le Boulanger" in Northern California:
Ciabatta with sausage and red pepper omelette and provolone and Italian cheeses
Great with a little Tabasco for spice.

The sausage I've seen frequently in Hawaii is linguica, and it appears to be a slightly different sausage from Portugese chorizo, which I've never personally eaten.

But goop is easier to remember, especially first thing in the morning. No, your concoction was a true lifesaver this weekend when I was focused on holiday cooking (which usually means that I spend all day cooking but then have nothing to eat).
Just happened to be passing through a Chowhound thread about this stuff...
To throw another chorizo into the mix there's also Spanish chorizo which is more like an actual sausage (but with a prominent paprika flavor).
Doc savage...that Italian Frittata sandwich looks divine. I'd add some zucchini to the mix as a personal preference.

Pancetta, Arugula and Tomato.
Served on grilled sourdough with mayo.
It was good, but I think I'll be reverting to streky bacon this Summer.
This is a Summer only sandwhich for me as it is requires top quality tomatoes, which we only get in the Summer months.

My local bagel guy makes a great pre&c with 2 freshly fried eggs, not a scrambled mess for $3.75 and I can skip lunch.

You had me until the meat.
My favourite French street food is from one of the trucks on the beach at Antibes, serving your sandwich on a baguette, minus the meats, but served Américain (the French term for fries/frites stuffed inside a sandwich)

Runny yolks are gross. Just sayin' ...
My ultimate breakfast sandwich:
"Everything" bagel
Fried egg over hard
Swiss cheese
Canadian bacon
Béchamel sauce
Dash of Cholula Green Pepper Hot Sauce
Mmm ... heaven!

Anyway, your sandwich would be so much better with a runny yolk (and some other brand of hot sauce)!

Food sounds good but anything at the beach in Juan-les-Pins is going to taste good - Bonjour, le repas!

I am with vasantn; I like my fried eggs over hard, absolutely no runny yolk. My perfect breakfast sandwich is a fried egg sandwich --- over hard, on toast, either butter or mayo, ketchup, maybe a slice of cheese. I'm not a big ketchup consumer (though I do like it on my hot dogs 
), but a fried egg sandwich has to have ketchup to remind me of my dad.
Still planning to try Sweet Willie's breakfast sandwich recipe. Second favorite after fried egg is a sandwich made with an onion bagel and either cream cheese and nova salmon or some combination of meat, cheese, and lettuce.

I was working on my version last summer, which I call a PAT:
Pancetta, Arugula and Tomato.
Served on grilled sourdough with mayo.
It was good, but I think I'll be reverting to streky bacon this Summer.
This is a Summer only sandwhich for me as it is requires top quality tomatoes, which we only get in the Summer months.
