Not the exact thing, but kindof.

I always wanted to gulp this omelette bun thing that was being sold at the nearby pastry shop. What sandi almost always orders are 2 of them. So I thought I might as well sample the famous thing one morning. Actually I’ve never been through one. Wonder whether I’d like it, cause I usually have a bit of a ‘don’t like’ spot for eggs, unless fried outof sense. I don’t like the yolk runny: the taste makes me feel like throwing up although mum says I used to like them as a baby [though I can't remember]. Usually she gets me breakfast fixed on time to my every whim and fancy even on Sundays, most of the engineers don’t seem to eat no breakfast cause they almost always munch something before firing up in the morning. Yesterday I felt like I was too full for a sampling, but suffered towards lunchtime. Hmm.., these days The Beloved Rover isn’t here. On vacation for an unbearable 3 or so days as intel reports. This is hard cause it means no tea. So sandi lets the Web engineering team go out for an iced coffee something or the other in late afternoon, but we miss the morning 1030 something one. So a good excuse to sample the thing. I’ll duck in, gulp the thing down, and report if I’m still alive.

My goodness this is excellent. Just wiped out the last crumb. Got an OB plus a patty just inn case it went, well, let’s say bad? But what nonsense. Excellentio! It’s a buttery buttery bun split hamburger-style to push in your best omelette. Nothing runny at all, great spicy and a tinge of hot and just the right sprinkle of onion and all. Sandi sure has a taste. Almost free for 40Rs.

Pastry Shop, yeh’ve gatch yaself a deal!
