They've got reasonably good manicotti, which is my favorite Italian food, and the bread + pesto they serve as a freebie rocks my world.<br /><br />I am not a big fan of Facci. But I don't knock Howchow for recommending it. The problem with restaurant recommendations is that different people have different tastes.Morty Abzughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02749453327090487080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6242128247197293599.post-67960639135297204202011-05-09T22:21:54.145-04:002011-05-09T22:21:54.145-04:00@Stephanie
