Gino's Focacceria

'Spleen this, Lucy.

The vastedda special ($5) — stuffed with cow spleen, clouds of ricotta, and grated parmesan — was certainly filling, and the textures hovered somewhere between engaging and perturbing, but it was dry, dry, dry. Not especially salty, just dry, which seems to be the nature of the beast. Glad I had a 16-oz. soda close at hand.
