Traditional tabbouleh uses bulgur and a heck of a lot of that cleansing herb, parsley. At San Francisco’s Parallel 37, the dish retains its herby appeal but swaps its grain base for our favorite protein-packed seed: quinoa. The restaurant’s new chef, Michael Rotondo, heralds the ancient seed’s health perks as well as its nutty flavor and crunchy texture. Pairs great with pita* or other flat bread.
