Above: Since 2002, Janette Kaden, one of the founders of the popular Tin Shed restaurant in Portland, Oregon, has been serving wonderful food that has helped revive the neighborhood along Alberta Street. "And we definitely knew that breakfast would be the meal that put us on the map," she said.

Above: As featured in "Breakfast Special," at La Herencia cafe, a little Cuban cafe in St. Augustine, Florida, Manny and Janett Herrero offer savory and sweet breakfast choices.
Above: At Cartwright's Maple Tree Inn, people love the buckwheat pancakes so much that they will wait in a long, cold line just to get in. The Cartwrights tap the trees behind the restaurant and cook up the maple syrup in the basement of this building.
Learn new ways to start the day! "Breakfast Special" is a celebration of going out for a morning meal in America.
Producer Rick Sebak visits interesting and unusual breakfast spots, from a Cuban cafe in downtown St. Augustine to a mid-western eatery in a shopping center outside Columbus, Ohio.
He lets viewers sample pancakes in rural New York state, try "congee" in San Francisco and see what's cooking at the Tin Shed in Portland, Oregon.
The beauty of breakfast is there are so many places where care is taken, where you can live outside a cereal box, where you can start a day with a memorable meal in an interesting spot.
And if you're lucky, like us, you'll strike up a conversation and be part of the breakfast scene yourself. There's more to breakfast than a bowl of cold cereal.
