The story
In the Milano suburb of Baggio, La Pucceria di Mary e Vito has quietly built a reputation that belies its humble storefront. Rated 4.7 stars, this bakery specializes in pucce and panzerotti—and local food personality Franchino Er Criminale calls it nothing less than “exceptional,” a “hidden gem that puts famous places to shame.” His verdict, delivered during his *Forni criminali* series, positions the spot as a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic, traditional Italian street food away from the tourist trail.
Franchino specifically praised the “perfect pucce and panzerotti,” highlighting the **Puccia**, **Puccia con Olive**, and both baked and fried versions of the **Panzerotto al Forno e Fritto**, alongside a **Pan Brioche**. The tag “#gluten-free-options” suggests accommodation for dietary needs, but the core draw remains the impossibly well-executed classics. For locals and intrepid visitors alike, this is a bakery that delivers on every promise—a true local spot where the craft honors tradition without a hint of pretension.

Dishes mentioned
Puccia
Perfect baking, melt-in-the-mouth dough, well seasoned, tasty just right. I don't know if you can see how greasy it is, just right. Perfect. You wouldn't stop eating it.
Puccia con Olive
This one is a bit bland, I have to say. These tomatoes on top need a lot of salt. The olives are from the lab, not homemade.
Panzerotto al Forno e Fritto
Look at the craftsmanship of this panzerotto! It's crunchy on the outside, soft inside, delicious. I had to come to Milan to eat a real panzerotto, while food bloggers go to Luini. This is the real thing.
Pan Brioche
Very good dough. The talk is zero, the good stuff speaks for itself.
