Wooloomooloo Steakhouse Revisited @ Raffles City

Our friday date night game is still going strong, thankfully - gives us more chance to indulge over weekends. Somehow we decided to revisit Wooloomooloo for their steaks. Turns out, it is a hot place for a friday night for families, gatherings and dates. And a top of mind place for a birthday meal. Onion loaf smelt heavenly, it could be just onions and butter causing this illusion. The uneven seasoning was further tasted with every bite, some parts too bland and others just right.

Truffle Mac and Cheese Balls ($8) Macaroni dressed in 3 cheeses, breaded and hand rolled into such uneven shapes. First up, there were barely 3 types of cheeses in them and it was barely as sinful as it was described...
