A number of years ago, when wraps started being served in kosher restaurants in New York, I was in a small Milchig restaurant in Manhattan where wraps were on the menu, & a sign on the wall behind the cashier said that the bracha on wraps is Hamotzi. Shortly thereafter, I was in a fleishig restaurant which had a sign saying that the bracha on wraps is mezonos. I called the rav hamachshir of the second place to ask him what the story was. He told me that in his opinion the bracha should be hamotzi, but he had spoken to a rav whom he considered greater than he was, who maintained that the bracha should be mezonos. The rav to whom I spoke also said that in his opinion, if one eats 1 slice of pizza with french fries, one should say hamotzi. Very confusing, but our policy is to always wash & say hamotzi on these items, (as well as “mezonos rolls”) as we only eat them when being kovea s’uda.
