Wake Up and Smell the Coffee with PBS' Breakfast Special

A cold glass of orange juice, a plate full of eggs with a side of crisp bacon, and a DVD player loaded up with a quality PBS title make for a perfect morning experience. In Breakfast Special: A Celebration of Great Morning Meals, foodies from around the country explore the classic American pastime of a hearty breakfast, dishing out little known facts, cooking tips, and unique recipes that will want to make viewers set their alarms earlier. Breakfast Special will be available on DVD on August 24.

Breakfast Special: A Celebration of Great Morning Meals

From Rick Sebak, the much loved champion of all things Americana who previously delighted audiences with A Hot Dog Program and Sandwiches That You Will Like, brings his same wit and down-to-earth charm to Breakfast Special: A Celebration of Great Morning Meals. Travelling across the United States to sample risotto in Ohio to Cuban favorites in Florida, Breakfast Special celebrates the wide and diverse range of breakfast dishes Americans enjoy every morning. This documentary is part travelogue, part food show, and part portrait of America as explained and enjoyed by the people who get up early and find good food.
