I'm digging his editing style. His clips of himself, and his choices for music are excellent. I appreciate that he's cameraman, director, editor, and actor, comedian, and instructor and cook. You might say, he's a flake. But that would be missing what he's doing. And he doesn't need us. His numbers, of subscribers and views, are impressive.

Copying Jaques Pepin
This is funny to me because I did the same thing. And I used the same accent when I did it. But I didn't do it all at once. My trial occurred over years. Decades, actually.

Some things stick in your head and some things don't.
That Japanese guy scoring the omelette and having its guts spill out?
Memorable.
Jacques Pepin was the chef @ the top French restaurant in NYC when Howard Johnson hired him to help develop his restaurant chain. I wonder if Jacques developed the clam strips? I learned this info reading a fascinating book, 10 Restaurants That Changed America.
Like a good marinara or Alfredo, a good omelet is a joy forever.
He seems more hung-up on getting the shape of the omelette just so than the taste of the thing!
spinelli -- I didn't know you could get anything edible in a Howard Johnson's. I'm still not going to take a chance.
The eggs he are using have those bright orange farm yokes (the chickens ate more than prepackaged feed). Good tasting, but throws the color of the omelette off.
Is Jacques Pépin dead? Howard Johnson's certainly is (I hear that there may be one left). That said, the clamstrips rocked.
The last Howard Johnson's
Howard Johnson's is emblematic of a period in the history of American popular culture. A powerful symbol.
So it was wonderfully appropriate that Megan proved her quality, and sealed her fate (at least for the short term), at a Howard Johnson's.
That was one of the great episodes.
Wiki states the land has been sold from under the last Howard Johnson, that and the owner being #METOOed sealed it's face.
The world's most famous omelets are made at Mere Poulard's in Mont Saint-Michel. They sometimes show up in travel shows of France or Normandie. They charge 34 Euros for 4 eggs beaten to a fluffy foam. The reviews at Trip advisor are a hoot. The restaurant advertises a fixe prix of 15 Euros and when you try to order they bait and switch and say that's the child's menu.
I like the guy, he does a good job of keeping it interesting.
Mere Poulard's in Mont Saint-Michel hand beats those Oeufs to a fluffy foam...
So you are paying for all that beating off.
