The funny thing is that "Omelette du fromage" isn't even correct. It means "The cheese's omelet".

If you want to say "Cheese omelet" you should say "Omelette au fromage"

What if I just wanted more cheese than egg.

Like when you ask how much parm to mix with egg in a cabanara, and the answer many shaped men like myself answer is until I can't afford it. (Which is the #1 reason I don't make carbanara more)

Anyways, if it's got more cheese then egg... Maybe it is the cheeses omlet

Trust me, in that context it's a possessive. As if the cheese could own the omelet.

So is there a French term for carbonara, or do they just say it's the father's sauce so we shall name all others mothers and her children?
