NEW YORK -- It's not made of gold -- just eggs, lobster, caviar and a few trimmings. But an omelet on the menu of a swank Manhattan hotel will set you back $1,000, plus tip.


Norma's restaurant in Le Parker Meridien hotel on West 57th Street is selling the pricey omelet, billed as the "Zillion Dollar Frittata." It features six eggs, a lobster and -- here's the kicker -- 10 ounces of sevruga caviar. The restaurant pays $65 an ounce for the caviar.



But the restaurant's management insists the omelet isn't just a gimmick -- they say it tastes good too.

A "budget" version of the omelet, containing only one ounce of caviar, sells for $100.

By Monday, no one had yet ordered the $1,000 version

My buddy who just moved out to New York's roomate cooks at that place during breakfast hours. He says they got that Caviear falling on the floor and shit. It's just a gimmick to attract people with too much money to there place. He hasn't had to make one yet, but he knows the recipe.
