After owning a cafe and produce market in the Detroit area for many years, which specialized in Egyptian, Greek and Mediterranean delicacies, the Kaskorkis family moved to Grand Rapids to open Parsley on Monroe Center. The  restaurant offers the marinated and slow-roasted shawarma, along with kabobs and kaftan, tabbouli and fattoush salads, grape leaves, falafel, crushed lentil soup and more.
