The story
Tucked away on Via delle Forze Armate near a construction site, this unnamed Forno (bakery) has quietly become a 4.5-star local favorite in Milan. It’s a casual spot specializing in pizza al trancio, and according to Franchino Er Criminale, it’s an unexpected gem.
In his video “Forni criminali MILANO FINE,” he praises the slices as “excellent with great dough and toppings,” calling them “easily among the best in Milan.” The menu includes a Pizzetta Margherita, a Trancio di Pizza con Pomodori, and a Trancio di Pizza con Pancetta e Provola — all highly recommended. For a simple, no-fuss bite that punches above its weight, this bakery delivers.

AI summary of what 3 dish mentions say about the food
The pizzetta margherita earns raves for its perfectly blistered, chewy crust and bright tomato sauce. The overall vibe is one of rustic, unpretentious warmth that makes every bite feel like a discovery.
“This is the red pizzetta, well baked, well seasoned, I also see it heavy on the cheese. But the dough is very light, so maybe it's better than it looks. Indeed it's good. Too bad it's a bit undercooked inside because it's a bit pale inside, but the dough is light light light, good. It's a cloud focaccia topped with tomato and mozzarella, not bad. It's challenging. Really good, good for an 8 — I didn't expect it. I thought it would be the classic Autogrill pizzetta with fake cheese and rubbery dough, but nothing to say, love it.”

Trancio di Pizza con Pomodori
Listen to that pulpy tomato, it roasted well. The dough is excellent, it's cooked well. Guys, I didn't expect it. I said 'here we go, I'll eat badly and close with something bad', but instead it's good. It's so good I have to remember this place when I make the top three pizza al trancio in Milan. Because I've encountered good pizza al trancio, but this is a very good slice. Excellent.
Trancio di Pizza con Pancetta e Provola
I try the pancetta one. It's good, well flavoured, the provola is excellent. The dough is excellent, cooking done well, condiments nothing to say. Already from that pizzetta the dough was very melt-in-the-mouth, very good.
