 ‘Egg-ceptional’ Omelette Unveiled at Broadgate

Broadgate creates the world’s most luxurious omelette for City of London workers  

The world’s most luxurious omelette has today been unveiled at Broadgate, City of London by chefs at Broadgate’s Piccolino restaurant.  The ‘cracking’ offering features a range of ‘egg-ceptional’ ingredients including the world’s finest cheese, Caciocavallo Podolico, taken from the Podolico cow which only provides milk in May and June, along with Colonna olive oil which is harvested and bottled on a 400 year old Tuscan estate.

Created by head chef, Enzo Buscema and costing an ‘eggs-treme’ £35, the aptly named ‘Eggs-change Square Omelette’ on sale to Broadgate City workers, is served with handpicked asparagus and drizzled with Canti prosecco to ‘egg-cite’ even the most discerning palate.

Having carefully blended hundreds of ingredients over a two month period, including the hero Tartufo truffle, sourced from Abruzzo, Italy and popular amongst the Italian Royal Family, Enzo’s final recipe includes:  

·         One duck egg from Sussex

·         Five sprinkles of gold dust

·         Five Porcini mushrooms from the Trentino Alpi

·         Seven shavings of Caciocavallo Podolico from Podolico

·         Five shavings of Tartufo Nero Truffles from Abruzzo

·         Five shavings of Testun Barolo cheese from Piemonte

·         Three stems of wild asparagus from Sicily

·         Three stems of Radicchio from Treviso

·         A drizzle of Colonna olive oil from Tuscany

·         A drizzle of Canti prosecco from Canti

Mark Evans, Estate Director at Broadgate said: “We’ve worked closely with Piccolino’s on the ‘Eggs-change Square’ omelette and are delighted with the result – a light but egg-cellent omelette which will tantalise the taste buds of everyone at Broadgate this Spring.”
