Eggs aren't all they are cracked up to be.

I love to eat omelets. I have mine with ham mushrooms and olives with cheddar cheese. It just absolutely amazes me what some cooks think an omelet is. when I order one from the cafe at work, they sometimes grill the ham, mushrooms and olives. They scoop out some of that mystery scrambled-egg-from-the-bag that they poured into a bowl. They let it run all over the flat grill and pretty much cook the egg before the extras are added. They add the extras, and roll it up. They then put the cheese on top. When you try and eat it, it comes out as several layers of scrambled egg, some cheese sometimes on top, and miscellaneous ham, mushrooms, and olives all over the plate.

They used to have a guy that would saute the goodies. Pour the egg on the grill but create edges to keep the egg from spreading too thin. He'd add the goodies so they get incorporated into the omelet. He folds up the omelet and puts the cheese on top and steeps it. Much better.

I still like the cheese on the inside with the goodies. Then some more cheese on top.
