  1. Saved the best for last.. the airline Chef's was the best. The culinary instructor was the worst…. cooking at a high heat creates a burned outside and raw inside.

  2. I love this series. So interesting to see how all those different functions build a very simply dish like an omelet. And the world is so beautifully versatile.

  3. I like almost every style shown in this video but I’m taking the diner omelet every single time!

  4. Experimental chef's pancake, visually, reminds me of pajeon (korean pancake).

  5. this is amazing, please do more just like this! having them all make the same dish, but since their environments and goals are different they adjust individually just itches a part of my brain in the best way 🙂

  6. Do you want to know why this is BS? Because every great omelette place uses little pans to cook the ingredients separately before incorporating it into the omelette. You can't properly cook a restaurant omelette in one pan. Otherwise you're just substandard.

  7. hotel chef saying that the dark yolks mean the egg is fresh. chicken farmer here. it just means they ate grass 💀. crazy to hear supposedly fancy chefs still spreading misinformation.

  8. I'd like to know what school they serve that at! They serve rotten dogfood in Seattle!

  9. That was the saddest excuse for a French omelette I’ve ever seen. Thing was shredded.

  10. 13:02 HOLY S*** I thought the Exerimental Chef has some off the wall ideas, this dude takes the cake, never heard of a "Modernist Chef".

  11. I kinda found it funny that the french chef was outrageously french with his talking and cooking but his omelette was the closest thing that I do myself. I sometimes add some milk to it to make it fluffy and lighter though

  12. too bad that last one isnt every public school in the world… let alone one in my region… im grown now anyways but seriously

  13. Honestly I avoid omelets on airplanes. It doesn't really matter how well you cook it on the ground, but once you reheat it on the plane, it just overcook itself. The worst omelet I ever had was a watery omelet (congrats to Hawaiian airline for achieving that). But unfortunately, a better alternative doesn't exist: either no other option, or the other option is not my cup of tea

  14. Insider: Hey Guys let's gather all the various kinds of chefs we can find and make em cook omelettes!

    Experimental Chef: I'm gonna make a frittata and I dare you to say otherwise.

  15. I can feel myself growing more forgiving of aeroplane food with every word the airline chef speaks

  16. Oh wow yes, that fruit salad pico de gallo sounds freaking awesome

    I would really love to see more school cafeteria cooking. I'm really impressed by what they came up with

  17. After viewing this video watch Jacques Pepin make a french omelet and know that you just witnessed the master of the technique.

  18. I think Chef T’s looked the best out of all of them. Mr. Inoue & Mr. Al Ateen’s omelettes were close for second.

  19. I wish the Korean woulda called it Fusion Omelette. I felt triggered when he called it Spanish and then added all that Korean stuff.
