Would this be similar to a parker house roll or what is the difference ?

Spent a night in the Parker House last year but never had a roll or a slice of cream pie for shame. It was St Patrick's weekend so the place was super busy.

I hardly ever cook, BUT it may be that my wife can be talked into preparing these!
