| - I've only been to Flying Fig twice -- both times for brunch. So while I can't comment on lunch or dinner, let's talk breakfast. I wasn't feeling a heavy breakfast after a night of eating plenty of junk at the Best of Cleveland party. So, the least meat-y and heavy option looked like the Scrambled Eggs. I wouldn't usually order scrambled eggs at a restaurant because it's one of the few things I feel like I can make as well at home. But I had a feeling I was in for a treat because everything here is a little special.
The eggs were slightly scrambled, and piled atop each other in a big sphere, like the top of a sloppy ice cream cone. Layered in the scramble were chives and gruyere, which gave them good flavor, but nothing that knocked me off my feet. The toast it came with was more of a crunchy bread, slightly and intentionally burned along the edges. Still good when you add butter. And it came with a wonderful, light side salad with a little cheese and light dressing. Surprisingly good combination. I tested a bite of the biscuits and gravy, and it was incredible.
It was enjoyable, but not spectacular. The service was very attentive, but not exactly friendly. I'd definitely go back, and I'm interested in trying other meals next time.
