Faicco's stuffed breads will weigh heavy on you, in all the best ways. Broccoli rabe bread (above) rewards you with coins of housemade sweet sausage; stromboli (first photo below) packs in ham, salami, pepperoni, and swiss. Also shown, up close: a parsley-flecked prosciutto ball deep-fried to a dreamy golden brown. The cheesy, almost creamy filling sports tidbits of the namesake cured ham.
