Here's Bobby Flay Making Pancakes For Portlandia: The Brunch Special

Sure, why not: Here's a photo of chef and restaurateur Bobby Flay guest starring in Portlandia: The Brunch Special, a one-hour Portlandia special airing this Friday, July 20. According to a press release, Portlandia: The Brunch Special "features a never-before-seen look into the making of" the season two finale "Brunch Village" (see clips from the episode). In the special, "Flay stars as himself as he helps co-creator and director Jonathan Krisel on his quest to create the world's most perfect marionberry pancakes for the finale." Whuh?

Anyway, Bobby Flay is building quite an acting resume: Last year he had a couple of cameos in Entourage (see clips here and here) in which Ari Gold called him a "barbecuing boy-toy." Here's a preview clip of the Portlandia special:
