Parrotfish with achiote sofrito (sort of half copied from this Eric Ripert recipe: http://www.aveceric.com/all-recipes/red-snapper-with-tomatillos-and-sofrito-emulsion); some new delicious flavours for me and will definitely try again:

What I willl say is keep the Marmite. It keeps forever and a teaspoon in a beef stew will add loads of flavour and you won't taste it as an individual ingredient. I have a Marmite cookbook which has various other recipes...I have strawberries, and some marmite I'll never use for anything else. And, there is this challenge on a cooking forum. Hmmmm.

That's interesting. I don't regard omelette as a breakfast item. In Europe its a light lunch or dinner thing and rarely seen at breakfast.
One thing omelettes aren’t here is “light” - they’re at least three (and sometimes four) egg affairs filled with loads of meats, vegetables, and cheeses (to order).
Add in the potatoes and toast they automatically come with and it’s one of those breakfasts that induces a food coma afterwards.
I’ve posted a few breakfasts from this place:

I'm sure those are very nice but they are making rather a big deal of using 'NEVER PASTEURIZED' or 'NEVER FROZEN' eggs.
"So you just use normal eggs then?"
"Umm, yeah."
That’s because a lot of restaurants use those cartons of already-mixed eggs for scrambled eggs and omelettes.I'm sure those are very nice but they are making rather a big deal of using 'NEVER PASTEURIZED' or 'NEVER FROZEN' eggs.

I actually never knew there was frozen egg catering product - shows what I know. Yeah I suppose if you need to make 200 scrambled egg dishes pouring out of a carton is a lot quicker.

I just returned from the hospital and had a nice lunch. It was leftover chicken paprikash on noodles that my sister made during her visit this week. I don't often get lunches that good. 
Lunch:
I think those are the best fries I’ve ever had anywhere. They were still glistening, with the hot oil dancing feverishly, when she served them, and the outside was the thinnest, crispiest I’ve ever tasted.
I had very low expectations, as this is the bar outside one of those way overpriced movie houses with food/beer, but it was excellent.

I was annoyed at the guy next to me, because he sat down and told the bartender to change the channel on the TV, even though I appeared to be looking at it.
However, he just went up in my estimation because he ordered an omelette…and an old-fashioned.

I love a good omelette, but it has to be pretty basic. Omelette with cheese, omelette with cheese and bacon, omelette with cheese and crispy onions, with a few herbs, with mushrooms, fine.
But an omelette with cheese, bacon, chorizo, ham, mushrooms, tomatoes, red peppers, avocado and sweetcorn....
Dunno, I think they're missing the point than an "omelette" should basically be about eggs!

My usual omelet is diced ham and cheddar cheese. Sometimes I'll add mushrooms.
