Out: fancy Benedicts. In: fancy omelets. And D.C. chefs are embracing the trend.
Why it matters: The Bear's now-famous "omelet scene" left everyone craving some buttery, Boursin-filled deliciousness.
How it works: Fresh eggs, a cheesy filling, and a lot of butter. Extra points for the potato chip crumble (here's a home recipe for aspiring Sydneys).
Where to find it: Not ready to break out your omelet pan? Go out!
💎 Any Day Now: Chef Tim Ma's Navy Yard cafe just launched dinner with a $25 "fancy omellette." It's filled with a sour cream-and-onion spread and decked out with truffles, caviar, and potato chips.
🦞 Le Diplomate: A buttery gruyere omelet ($17) is available any time at Le Dip, though look out for the lobster omelet special ($32) with gruyere-infused mornay sauce.
🥚 Petite Cerise: Chef Jeremiah Langhorne's signature omelet, served breakfast through lunch/brunch, comes swimming in gruyère cream with seasonal stuffings including goat cheese and caramelized onions (pro tip: get a side of beef fat-fried frites).
🧈 Le Clou: NoMa's swanky new bistro serves breakfast for dinner: a $32 omelet with osetra caviar, fancy French Échiré butter, crème fraîche, and chives.
