Why Do Fried Eggs Taste So Much Better At Restaurants?

The combination of talent, experience, equipment, and ingredients in a restaurant kitchen are especially critical components of what makes a restaurant fried egg so great.
Odds are, you're not a professional chef. The cook behind the burners at any given restaurant has likely prepared more egg dishes than you and everyone you know will ever consume.
Furthermore, a restaurant kitchen is designed to prepare food that people will want to pay for. That means that their appliances are the best the business was able to afford.
Their appliances are also constructed differently. An ideal fried egg will be prepared on a flat top grill, which most home stove tops are not equipped with.
Ingredients are also key, which are just naturally fresher in restaurants due to volume. For a final dose of extra flavor, they may even cook your fried eggs in butter.
