Delizie del Laboratorio - Pasticceria

the pastry counter is where you should start. delizie del laboratorio sits on via galileo galilei in pero, a quiet stretch of milan's western hinterland where the pace of a morning is still mostly determined by the bar, not the app. the coffee here has a local following that doesn't feel accidental, built over time rather than announced. if you're passing through on the way into the city, that's actually the right moment: a quick espresso standing up, or something slower if the pastries are calling. pero isn't a destination town, which means the places that do well here do so on repeat business from people who know what they want. via galileo galilei at 8am is a good place to test that theory.
