Milan’s First 100% Gluten-Free rotisserie Opens Its Doors
Milan, Italy – A new rotisserie in Milan is challenging culinary norms by offering a 100% gluten-free menu of traditionally off-limits Italian comfort food. Anomal Rosticceria, spearheaded by Maria Cristina, launched with a focus on recreating classic dishes typically inaccessible to those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities.
The eatery’s menu boasts a wide array of typically gluten-heavy favorites, including supplì, mondeghili, cod meatballs, parmigiana di melanzane, and even crepes filled with both sweet and savory options like ricotta and spinach or pumpkin and gorgonzola. Alongside Italian staples, Anomal Rosticceria also features dishes reflecting the owner’s Argentine heritage, such as Pastel de Papas and empanadas – a nod to Maria Cristina’s family origins. The menu extends to roast beef, rice on the jump, tuna veal, panzerotti, croquettes, and a selection of sides, all prepared without gluten. Prices are aligned with standard rotisserie offerings in the area.
“To leave we decided to focus on what usually a celiac cannot eat. Lasagna,fried foods,pizza,supplì: all things that,in a traditional rotisserie,are off-limits for those who must limit or eliminate gluten,” explains Maria Cristina.
Currently operating primarily as a takeaway service with hours from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM and a reservation pick-up window from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, Anomal Rosticceria is expanding its services to include delivery via major platforms and a wider afternoon pick-up window. The shop also carries a curated selection of Gragnano Inecollo dry pasta, sweets from La Fabbrica del Panforte di Siena, specialty flours, craft beers, and wine. While currently lacking seating, the owners prioritize quality and safety as they scale their operations, with future plans potentially including catering services.
