Phorrito, when burrito meets Pho soup

Definitely, fusion cuisine has not finished surprising us! After the pizza-dough or the lobster sandwich, here is the Phorrito, a homemade sandwich that combines Vietnamese and Mexican flavors. Valentina and Adrien offer to (re)discover this concept from California in their restaurant located rue Oberkampf in the 11th arrondissement of Paris… Come on, no more suspense, what is Phorrito?

Between Phô soup and Burrito

As its name suggests, the Phorrito is a sandwich that mixes the ingredients of the Pho soup in a burrito (a wheat tortilla which in its traditional version consists of meat, red beans, tomatoes, spices, pepper, onion, etc.). Concretely, we garnish a tortilla with chicken, notebook (lean beef), camarons (shrimp) or, for the vegan version, tofu, and we add bean sprouts, basil and coriander ( Yum !). We obviously savor everything with a curry-pineapple, mint-coconut (for fans of sweet and salty), soy or hoisin (spicy) sauce. For the greediest, we let ourselves be tempted by extras like the hot Plantin banana. And for dessert it will be… cookies! What do we like? The Phorrito comes in PhoWok (salad version) or Spring Pholl (spring roll version). And if you want to discover it without leaving home? Meals are available for delivery on the Deliveroo mobile app (in Paris and near suburbs).

Something to make our mouths water!
