The story
Tucked along Via Destra Canale Molinetto, Forno Pasticceria Nonna Iride earns a 4.7-star reputation for its traditional sweets—creator Franchino Er Criminale specifically praises the fried tagliatelle (“Tagliatelle Fritte Glassate”) as a highlight. The bakery’s menu also features a whole-wheat focaccina with cherry tomatoes and a cream-filled roll, all rooted in local pastry traditions.
Yet Franchino flags two shortcomings: prices that feel high for the value, and packaging that leaves the food “soggy.” While the pastries themselves are genuinely good, the execution outside the oven could use refinement. For those prioritizing taste over presentation, Nonna Iride delivers; for a perfect takeaway experience, expect a slight compromise.

A bakery-pasticceria with good traditional sweets like fried tagliatelle, but expensive and with poor packaging that makes the food soggy.
Dishes mentioned
Focaccina Farina Integrale con Pomodorini
Whole wheat focaccina with cherry tomatoes, oily — not bad, not bad, it's just a bit soggy. You always have to contextualise these things. Look at the packaging, folded like that, the tomato stays on the paper. A bit undercooked inside, but not bad.
Girella con Crema
This one has a really good look, nice cream, nice baking. This is good, this is good.
Tagliatelle Fritte Glassate
These are the typical Carnival dessert from around here — fried tagliatelle, glazed. These are poetry, man. Fried, sugary, already beautiful, very likeable, good. And there's lemon zest, delicious.
