The story
Tucked into Viale Col di Lana in Milano, this bakery-pastry shop-café holds a solid 4.2-star rating on ReTubeIt, but the sole creator review paints a far less flattering picture. Franchino Er Criminale, in his video “Forni criminali MILANO FINE,” describes a place where quality is painfully uneven.
The focaccia he tried was “oily and poorly baked,” the sweets were “mediocre,” and a stingy attitude over five cents of change left a lasting bad taste. His sampling of the pizzetta, pangocciole, and treccia con crema all earned thumbs-down. For a venue that bills itself across three specialties, this one-review snapshot suggests an experience best approached with caution.

AI summary of what 4 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the airy, salt-crusted focaccia, calling it the soul of Panificio Pasticceria Caffetteria Col di Lana. The overall vibe is one of rustic, heartfelt simplicity that makes every bite feel like a warm Italian embrace.
“This focaccia is maybe a bit overbaked. The oven cooking is really uneven — here it's cooked, here it's anemic. When I bite into it, it doesn't seem too bad, but look, it's a bag of oil. I mean, oil in focaccia is fine, it belongs there, but here it arrived as a literal bag of oil. I'd have something to say about that. Luckily I also got a Ceres beer — the perfect pairing, because all that oil in my mouth... I'd give it a 6 out of 10.”

A bakery-pastry shop-café with very uneven quality — the focaccia is oily and poorly baked, the sweets are mediocre, and the stingy attitude over 5 cents of change left a bad taste.

Focaccia
This focaccia is maybe a bit overbaked. The oven cooking is really uneven — here it's cooked, here it's anemic. When I bite into it, it doesn't seem too bad, but look, it's a bag of oil. I mean, oil in focaccia is fine, it belongs there, but here it arrived as a literal bag of oil. I'd have something to say about that. Luckily I also got a Ceres beer — the perfect pairing, because all that oil in my mouth... I'd give it a 6 out of 10.
Pizzetta
I also got a couple of little pizzas. The dough, cooking, ingredients — all average. This is something that works if you need to feed yourself, a 6 or 6.5 at most.
Pangocciole
It's not a real Pangocciole, but we eat worse. At least this one is cooked decently, it has chocolate chips. The dough isn't the best, but if you eat it, it's fine.
Treccia con Crema
At first glance it doesn't look bad, but now that I opened it, it's a bit limp. Unfortunately it's from today, and I don't know... overall I can't give it a bad grade, but I can't give it a pass either. I'd give it a 6 because of the 5 cents thing — she really wanted to give me the change.
