"Restaurateurs Cristina Mendez and John Pham didn’t set out to confuse everyone’s taste buds, but that’s how it worked out. A few months ago, the duo opened Cris & John, a new Vietnamese street food eatery in North Dallas that serves up one of the city’s most interesting dishes: the phorrito. In addition to other “Tex-Viet-Mex” fusion dishes like horchata served with tapioca pearls and rice paper quesadillas, the phoritto holds all the flavors of a traditional, steaming bowl of pho inside a giant warm tortilla, and all for $7. Stuffed with noodles, veggies, beef, and a top-secret sauce, this burrito-pho hybrid is a reason to drive north.
