i remember a few grace bros stores in sydney had food halls within their stores but they all disappeared I think Myer in Melbourne is the only one with a food hall these days

I remember that too. Staff would occasionally ask "young" Mr Grace about his older brother "old" Mr Grace, to which "young" Mr Grace would say, "He doesn't get out much these days." (assuming the older brother, which was never seen anyway, was probably 100+)

Didn't Grace Bros. get renamed in 2004?

OMG, there really is a grace brothers! I thought it was a fictional store from that TV show "Are You Being served?"

One of the Grace brothers on that show was called Young Mr. Grace, (even though the guy was in his 80s.)

I've clearly no taste whatsoever, because I absolutely love this ad! Ta so much for posting this, it's such a nice little piece of nostalgia, I remember it well but would never have dreamed it would turn up here!

Both David Jones and Myers in Melbourne have food halls.
