Traditionally, tabouli is served as part of a mezze platter: a selection of small plates and appetizers within Middle Eastern cuisine. Chef Maggie added this to our menu to pair with items like our falafel burger, tzatziki, hummus, and naan.

This dish includes fresh parsley, tomatoes, and lemon - the perfect ingredients to liven up any dish. Make your own mezze platter at home with the help of F&F's Traditional Tabouli recipe, shared below!

Eat Well.
