“Never change a winning team,” said Ettstaller, a finance professional who moved to Pittsburgh with Stacy, a Carnegie native. “I think Chef Ray did a fantastic job.”
Stacy, graduate in hospitality from Boston University returning to town, put her stamp of approval on the restaurant’s food: “We’re committed to maintaining the essence of Café Raymond.”
The couple recently bought the business from owner Raymond Mikesell. The sale may end a successful run of more than 15 years by Mikesell, who first bought a restaurant then known as Cafe Richard from Richard DeShantz in 2008, rebranding it after his own name and establishing a different approach from the various breakfast diners nearby.
