Breakfast and brunch will never be the same again. Nor will main meals, desserts or snack-times. This is a culinary adventure that will take you through the day -- even special occasions. It starts with the basic, simple recipes that make these comfort foods a favorite. But a few extra ingredients take the humble crepe, waffle, or pancake into a realm more exotic and provide fresh inspiration for any restless cook. -- Enjoy Lemon and sultana buttermilk pancakes piping hot from the pan or cold on-the-go. -- Go south-of-the-border with Tex-Mex-style chicken waffles for a hearty main meal. -- Get festive with Thanksgiving pancakes or deep-fried mincemeat pancake pockets.

-- Take colorful crepe and fruit skewers on a picnic, or serve them at a child's party. -- Finish your day with flair and hazelnut waffles with raspberries -- drizzled with dark chocolate sauce. The book includes more than 100 recipes, a brief history of this traditional food, and its regional variations. From the same series as Juice!, Ice Cream!, Soup! and Grill!.
