I Suck At The Omelet Factory

as yesterday was a holiday (labor day), karen and i wanted to do something productive. "something productive" generally translates to working on the house. in this particular case, working on the house involved adding trim around the windows on the second floor... we have a lot of windows.

so, we headed off to my favorite home improvement store (lowes) in pembroke for some molding. on the way back home, we passed the omelet factory, which is a restaurant that serves breakfast and lunch items... mainly omelets. now, i suck at the omelet factory. karen and i had heard about the omelet factory through a participant at the ymca a long time ago. the participant recommended the place to us as the restaurant was down our neck of the woods in norwell.

anyway, karen and i have never gone to the omelet factory... until now. in our defense, we generally don't go out for breakfast. i prefer the comfort of my blanket and my comfy bed. it just so happens that yesterday, we were out and about... and we happened to pass by the omelet factory. so, we decided to give it a try.

the omelet factory is located near the intersection of route 53 and schoosett street. (the place is actually on schoosett street.) in the parking lot, there are signs for the "omelet factory", "bon appetit" and some hair salon. there is, however, only one building. naturally, you would think that there are three separate businesses in that one building.

well, karen and i circled around the building. we found "bon appetit" and the nail salon. confused, we circled around back. out back, there was a sign for the omelet factory with its hours posted. the back doors near the signs did not have any handles on them. karen was able to pry them open... only to reveal the kitchen area of the restaurant. oops.

anyway, we then circled back around to the front. it was good to know we weren't the only ones confused by the omelet factory. another couple in the parking lot had also been circling around the building looking for the elusive omelet factory. they were equally stumped.

needless to say, all of us (karen and i, and the random couple) decided to just walk into "bon appetit". lo and behold... it turns out... bon appetit was the omelet factory.

the omelet factory was not what i expected at all. i was expecting to see a diner or something... or some antiquated restaurant look. it was actually very nice inside, even if it did have the old mom and pop restaurant feel to it. the food was quite delicious as well. i had an asparagus and cheese omelet (cue the rachael ray "yum-o" sound) that came with toast and red potatoes. yum yum stinky pee!

all in all, i enjoyed the omelet factory. and it was a good thing that we went when we did because the place started to get busy...
