Visit Albany’s Most Delicious Italian Restaurants
The city of Albany has a history deeply rooted in Italian culture. Before the Nelson Rockefeller Empire State Plaza was established and eminent domain took over, Albany’s South end was full of Italian communities that were forced to spread out and leave the area. Part of what was given to the community was their great passion for food, as you can see with so many amazing places to get a great Italian dish in the area. Below Destination Nissan discusses two fabulous Italian restaurants in the Albany area.
Caffé Italia
662 Central Avenue
For more than 30 years, the Romeo family has been delivering the tastes of old world classic Italian dishes to the community, which have been passed down for generations. Caffé Italia cooks every entrée to order and only uses the freshest, highest quality ingredients. A few of their most popular dishes include: Zuppa di Pesce, Swordfish Marechiaro, Fussili Seminerio, Veal Luciana and Sea Bass Antonio. Our personal favorite is the lobster ravioli in a tarragon cream sauce. The inside is small and cozy, so be sure to call ahead!
D’Raymond’s
269 Osborne Road
Tucked away at the end of a small plaza in the suburbs of Albany County you will find D’Raymond’s. All you have to do is say the name to locals and their eyes light up and their mouths start to water. The interior boasts of classic Italian charm, with mural windows, brick walls, dim lighting and smooth wood beams. D’Raymond’s has received the “Capital Region Living Award” 2011-2014 and “Best of the capital Region Award” 2009-2014. They offer a wide range of Italian dishes from the classic Veal Marsala to the more diverse Scaloppe Alle Tre Mostarde (veal in a three mustard sauce). Enjoy D’Raymond’s seafood, chicken and beef dishes and don’t forget to top it off with a dessert and cordial.
If you’re craving Italian food, you can’t go wrong with either of these beloved Albany restaurants!
Nissan Wants To Put “Ladies First”
All over the world, women are becoming a stronger presence in the work place, especially in manager-level positions. The percentage of women employees keeps increasing year over year thanks in part to programs like the ones that Renault-Nissan Alliance is putting forth.
These new programs aim to recruit, retain and promote women in the workforce in an effort to achieve Nissan’s goal to have women represent 14 percent of all management positions globally by 2017.
One such program already in effect is Japan’s official mentoring program for women manager candidates. This program is available for female general managers and offers reinforcement on issues of strategy, leadership, and career advancement. Another current program is a workshop geared towards young women engineers and offers women advice on how to build a career before having children. And finally, Nissan continues to expand the “Ladies First” retail program in Japan. Consisting mainly of dealerships that are managed and staffed mostly by women, the Ladies First dealerships feature elements that hope to make the shopping experience more welcoming to women and first-time buyers. These dealerships offer stylish interiors, a nursing room, and a spacious area where children can play.
For a look at a “Ladies First” dealership check out the video below.

98th National Championship Awarded to Nissan
Nissan continued to pull ahead of the competition this weekend as the most decorated manufacturer in the SCCA runoffs. The brand won its 98th National Championship thanks to driver Greg Ira, of Plantation, FL, at Daytona International Speedway.
“I got a good jump on the start,” Schader said. “(pole sitter) Scotty (White) and I hit the gas at the same time, but I guess I got a little bit of a leap and managed to pull a couple of car lengths into Turn One, and then I just started pedaling as hard as I could to get away from those guys before they were going to eat me.”
It appeared as though Ira would only finish second for most of the race. But near the end of lap 12, a brake malfunction struck the Porsche ahead of Ira which allowed him to cruise to a 19-second win with an average speed of almost 103 mph.
“I’m confident we can win at least two titles next year,” said North American Motorsports Manager Rick Kulach. “Mid-Ohio should bring out a solid contingent of Datsuns and Nissans in several categories, so I think we’ll have a little extra to celebrate this time next year.
