The story
Tucked away on Via Speronari near Milan’s Duomo, this bakery has earned a split verdict from local critic Franchino Er Criminale. In his *Forni criminali MILANO DUOMO* episode, he raves about the “good products across the board,” awarding a 9 out of 10 and singling out the Lingua alle Olive, Focaccia Genovese, and Maritozzo con Panna e Crema di Caffè. Yet in a later review for *Corvetto*, he calls it a bakery with “mostly poor products,” finding only the little pizza decent—and specifically thumbs-downing the Pizzetta con Cipolla e Formaggio.
The contrast is stark: one visit suggests a stellar neighborhood spot, the other a letdown. With a 4.2-star aggregate, the truth likely lies somewhere in between. For a warm, no-frills Italian bakery experience, proceed with curiosity—but maybe skip that featured pizzetta.

A bakery with mostly poor products — only the little pizza was decent. Overall a disappointing experience.

Forni criminali MILANO DUOMO · @ 2:04
A great bakery near the Duomo that works well, with good products across the board — I'd give it a 9 out of 10.
Dishes mentioned
Lingua alle Olive
This olive bread is really good — no flaws in the baking, the ingredients, or the cooking. It's just good bread.
- Focaccia
Pan Brioche allo Zenzero
This pan brioche has a nice colour and the leavening looks great. It's good — a good product.
Fagottino al Cioccolato
Compared to our Roman fagottino, the leavening here is good, but there's really very little chocolate. Too little.
Pane al Cioccolato
The bread was good, but again, very little chocolate.
