Description: Jamie, manager in training, is the son of owner Larry Parker, who decided to rent this space in 1996 even though he wasn't sure he could pay the rent. Larry named the fast food stand after his father Jerry, who's nickname was Big Daddy Parker. Larry calls Jamie "Their Saviour" [sic], and with this job, Jamie is paying for his own car and car insurance. They are now going into their sixteenth year of "happy business, beautiful sunsets and crazy people," says Larry Parker. The family-run food stand features international selection of fast food like pizza, chicken, nachos, burritos, hot dogs and burgers, etc.
