Not all Omelettes are equal


At Café Lurline, Chef Jackie takes the classic omelette and adds a touch of magic, folding fresh eggs into a smooth half-moon that’s cooked just right.

Choose your favourite style — Plain, Cheese, Spanish or White, each with its own character and flavour.

Every omelette is served with a side of sourdough, roasted cherry tomatoes and crisp garden greens. To finish, they add a spoonful of our house-made chilli hollandaise. It’s a small touch that brings gentle heat and a lift of flavour, making the omelette a café favourite.

OPEN: Wed - Mon 8:00am - 4:00pm

167 Lurline Street, Katoomba

TIP: Chef Jackie said, "If you're cooking at home, the best heat level to cook an omelette for the ideal texture is medium to medium-low heat. Cooking on medium heat allows the eggs to set gently without becoming tough or crispy, resulting in a silky, tender omelette.
