According to the history of giant Easter omelette of Bessières, Haute-Garonne, when Napoleon Bonaparte and his army were traveling through Southern France, they decided to rest for the night near the town of Bessières.
 
Napoleon feasted on an omelette prepared by a local innkeeper that was such a culinary delight that he ordered the townspeople to gather all the eggs in the village and to prepare a huge omelette for his army the next day. On March 19, 1994, the largest omelette in the world was made with 160,000 eggs in Yokohama, Japan, but it was subsequently overtaken by an omelette made by the Lung Association in Brockville Memorial Centre, Ontario, Canada on May 11, 2002 — it weighed 2.95 tonnes (2950 kg).

The bubbles are what make the omelette light and fluffy. Omelette to be cooked on both sides till it gets a little golden color.
