I am not a huge fan of omelette but then there are days when I feel like having one for breakfast/lunch. But the deal is that I need to make it myself and only then I will be able to eat it. We are used to eating a well done omelette but here people love under-cooked eggs and so it’s very difficult for me to get an omelette of my choice.
The other reason is portion size, oh my god you have to see how huge are the omelette here! Once we went to a popular cafe, I ordered their veggie omelette and when it was served it took me 10 minutes to get over the fact that how huge it was. It was made of around 12 eggs, no less. It was so thick, I guess I ate 1/4th of it. So yeah compared to that this omelette would appear very thin. Well that’s because it’s made using 2 eggs and that’s all I can eat. But you can add as many eggs as you like, I know my brothers would totally do that!
