Bobby Flay Throwdown: Best Omelettes on the Planet

Gary and Misty Young’s Squeeze In eatery is the talk of the town in Reno, NV and Truckee, CA. This popular breakfast spot has people crossing state lines for a taste of one of Misty’s world-class omelets. Misty’s four-egg omelets are eggstra special and have quirky names like: Racy Tracy, Hot Sweaty Busboy, Katastrophy, Benson Burner and Hot Weed. All of their dishes are packed with farm fresh ingredients and made to order.

Weekdays you can get in without a horrendous wait, but on the weekends, come early, or late, or wait. Loyal customers who frequent the joint are just as die-hard as the chef who owns it!

When Misty decided to throw a Love-In party at her Squeeze In, in Reno, NV, she’s in for a wild ride when Chef Flay crashes and is fired up to go head to head in a classic, all-American Omelet Throwdown! 107 quadrillion omelette possibilities didn’t seem to scare away Food Network’s “Throwdown with Bobby Flay”.  Misty took Flay’s challenge whipping up the Squeeze In’s 300,000th #37 Racy Tracy, the most popular omelette on the Squeeze In menu, packed with avocados and mushrooms sautéed in a white wine sauce and folded in with crisp bacon and Monterey Jack cheese. Flay’s creation is top secret until the program airs, but the Squeeze In has created a tribute omelette dubbed the “Spanish Flay” that debuts on the menu March 4.

Watch the results of this throwdown on the Food Network; March 03 @ 9:30 PM – March 04 @ 12:30 AM – March 14 @ 11:00 PM
