This is a recipe I created to duplicate one of my favorite breakfasts of all time. In the mid-eighties, I frequently visited Cafe Madison in Albany, New York, and always ordered the Potatoes O’brien Omelette. I have never found it in any other restaurant, so I devised my own recipe. After many iterations, I refined it to where it’s as good as the original. Enjoy!

This was created after my favorite omelette from Cafe Madison in Albany, New York. You'll enjoy it!
