Guy Fieri rolls out to some joints doing comfort food their way: In Arizona, where a Paris-trained chef is doing ham steak with red eye gravy; in San Francisco, where a trained pastry chef has folks lining up for chili cheddar cornbread and pumpkin oatmeal pancakes; and in Milwaukee, where another trained chef is wrapping bacon around meatloaf, and deep frying a ball of turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes.
Guy Fieri searches out some of America's greatest breakfasts: The New Jersey Diner where they're scratch-making more than 30 kinds of pancakes; the Kansas City joint with outrageous homemade hash -- and more than 60 different omelets; and the tiny spot in Phoenix where the owner is committed to the perfect homemade breakfast, from scratch-made waffles to pesto pork chops with eggs, and everything's cooked in butter.

Then, the finalists must make dinner with a tender cut of lamb and an Arabic dessert.
