Kichi Kichi Omurice's specialty is the omelet, but it's no exaggeration to say that the chef's talk is another highlight of the experience.
Also in this video, the chef explains how to make it.
First, you fry the ingredients.

When the frying pan warms up, add the chicken and fry it, raise the flame, fry the chicken, and saute some onions.
This can be seen at 0:06 of the video.

After that, add ingredients like green soybeans, which are rare in most omelets, boiled mushrooms, and after stir-frying, add rice to fermented butter, salt pepper and black pepper.
After seasoning the rice, placing it in a mold and placing it on a plate, you've got an omelet that both looks and smells amazing.
This can be seen from 3:07 in the video.

The food is of course delicious, but the chef's light-hearted banter is what keeps customers coming back for more.

The omelet is shaped properly with fast, yet delicate hands.
