The Arcadian Court in the Bay Store at Queen and Yonge still exists, but it s no longer generally open to the general public.
Instead of being “the place where Toronto does lunch,” it s now a private event space highly sought after for wedding receptions, gala dinners and corporate functions. This is a pity, as the venue has been a part of the Toronto scene for over eight decades.
I remember when it was a favourite place to enjoy a quiet lunch amid the hustle and bustle of the city s downtown. For many years, I visited it the week prior to Christmas to take part in its special yuletide buffet.
SHARING OPTIONS:
This 2017-born Limousin cow with her Charolais heifer calf at foot sold for £3,300 (€3,795).
Friday night last saw Clogher Valley Livestock Mart host the Breeding Beauties sale, where a strong demand for quality cattle was seen.
The sale was host to 60-plus super suckler outfits, with some maiden heifers also included.
The sale saw some of the highest prices fetched all spring in Clogher for suckler pairings, with a top price of £4,450 (€5,118) for a Limousin cow with a Limousin heifer calf at foot.
With the fatstock scene driving the commercial trade at the minute, it was clear that some of these buyers have their eye out for that special one to top a show and sale in the autumn or maybe for shows in the future as we slowly get back to normal after COVID-19.

The ultimate man vs. beast competition is here.
For the first time, the Professional Bull Riding league will help kick off Buc Days with a two-day event starting Friday night.
The Buc Days PBR Chute Out is set to start at 7:30 p.m. on April 30 and May 1 at the American Bank Center.
PBR General Manager Robert Simpson said the league had been hoping to plan this exciting rodeo event alongside Buc Days for quite some time. We ve been working on this partnership for about six or seven months now so we just can t wait to get there, Simpson said. Corpus Christi is always a target for us. To be able to partner and actually kick off the festival is a partnership made in heaven.
