It's Viva Florida 500, Florida's celebration of the 500th anniversary of the Spanish explorers arrival on the east coast. Chef Michael Lugo of "The Tasting Room" prepares Emeril a classic Spanish meal. Emeril then travels to Pensacola, where executive chef Irv Miller of "Jackson's Steakhouse" prepares him a variety of dishes. Afterwards, in Tampa, he makes paella with Andrea Gonzmart of the "Columbia Restaurant." Finally, Emeril visits the Kennedy Space Station, and learns about the NASA Space Program from Colonel Rick Searfoss.
During the week, it’s coffee on the run, or a sugary doughnut, but on the weekend, there’s nothing better than a long, leisurely breakfast, Emeril-style. Orange Emeril; Chicken and Apple Sausage Hash with Fried Eggs Sunny Side Up; Waffles with Fresh Strawberry Syrup
