20050615 - Cousins and co-workers Lori Donovan (left), of Bristol, and
Ann Parker, of Unionville, work Parker's Seafood Express stand
together during the lunch rush in Bristol. The stand is open Monday
through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and features alligator. The
unusual meat choice, which Parker is preparing on the counter, can be
served on a sandwich or as a side dish. Parker has owned the stand for
six years and brought the Cajun cooking style back from her years
working in an Alabama restaurant. "It's better than working for
somebody else," she said. (Brian Cassella / The Hartford Courant)
