Some new dishes to get you into trouble when in town on a weekend. First, Lafitte has partnered with Petaluma Farms to serve an all-egg brunch menu on Saturdays, which started as of February 4th. You can also pick up eggs to bring home. 10am–2pm.
Pier 5, The Embarcadero, 415-839-2134.
You know that infamous Bacon Butter Burger at Maverick? Yeah, the one that’s 70% cured Meyer chuck, 20% Oregon sweet cream butter, and 10% Nueske’s bacon. Also starting as of Saturday February 4th, you can now only get it during brunch, and they promise to not run out. This monster comes loaded with a bacon pepper marmalade, Gruyère cheese, an onion ring, and jalapeño mayo on an Acme bun—it comes with fries, all for $13.

Eater brings word of a new pizza on Saturdays (only) at Una Pizza Napoletana, the Apollonia. Named in honor of the Mangieris’ daughter, it comes topped with salami, buffalo mozzarella, garlic, Alder Lane Farm eggs, Parmigiano, and basil. For those paying attention, this will be the first pizza on the menu with meat on it.
