Although I no longer eat eggs, one of the best omelets I ever had, did have
raw stuff in it and that was why I liked it. The restaurant that made it is
no longer there. It was the Seahorse in Mukilteo. They were a fancy
seafood place and we took my aunt and uncle there for brunch. I remember
them having prime rib and all sorts of pastries. I don't eat any of that
stuff so I opted for an omelet that was made to order.

I remember being astounded at how it was cooked. The eggs were spread out
very thin in a special pan, cooked quickly, flipped over, then the
ingredients I had called out were put on top of the cooked eggs, it was
quickly rolled up and put on my plate.

I know that I wouldn't have asked for mushrooms as I don't care for them.
Most likely I had tomatoes, onions, peppers and cheese. I do remember the
cheese just barely being melted and the rest was raw.
