One our favorite breakfast spots is Fig Tree Cafe. With two central locations (PB and Liberty Station), you have plenty of options to ensure your weekend egg cravings are satisfied. While the restaurants have been closed this Spring, we were missing our favorite dishes at Fig Tree, so asked them to share our very favorite dish recipe with us: Breakfast Sushi! Sounds odd, but we swear it is one of the best things you’ll put in your mouth!
