Kicking off our #RestaurantRoots series, we're highlighting Queen Latifah, whose #FirstJob was working at her local Burger King at fifteen years old. "If my brother and I wanted money in our pockets, we had to get jobs," she told Parade in 2011. It's this perseverance that many of us in the industry can relate to that led to her success today. 💪 #ChooseRestaurants
