"Faicco's Pork Store - a Dyker Heights mainstay known for its handmade sausages, old-world butchery and unwavering neighborhood loyalty - received a New York State Senate Proclamation over the weekend celebrating more than a century of family-run culinary tradition. New York state Sen. Stephen T. Chan visited the 11th Avenue shop on Dec. 6, joining three generations of the Faicco family and a crowd of longtime customers to mark the occasion."
"As Italian-American communities grew across the city, Eduardo's son Joseph brought the business to Brooklyn in 1943 - a move that helped cement Faicco's as a fixture in South Brooklyn food culture. Over the years, the shop has become known for its steadfast commitment to traditional Italian craft."
Faicco's Pork Store received a New York State Senate Proclamation recognizing more than a century of family-run culinary tradition. New York state Sen. Stephen T. Chan visited the 11th Avenue shop on Dec. 6 and joined three generations of the Faicco family and longtime customers for the celebration. The business began in the early 1900s on Elizabeth Street in Manhattan and relocated to Brooklyn in 1943 under Eduardo's son Joseph. The shop continues to prepare sausages, roasts and cured meats by hand using old-world techniques and working without preservatives or shortcuts. Holiday lines and a 1975 New York Times profile broadened the shop's reputation beyond Dyker Heights.
