At one point, the pair leaned in close as they looked at something on Steve’s phone.
The outing comes after the pair sparked rumours that they were dating.
Steve met Amanda at his daughter’s primary school.
On October 26, the pair were pictured looking flirty during a boozy picnic at Bronte Park. At one stage, Amanda even flashed her chest at Steve.

The TV host later told Daily Mail Australia that their relationship was strictly platonic.
‘Sorry to disappoint, but there’s nothing romantic happening between the two of us,’ he said. ‘We’re great mates.’
Steve was previously married to TV presenter Rose Jacobs, who is the mother of his two daughters, Isabella, eight, and Francesca, six, but they separated in 2017.

They split just months after relocating to Vanuatu in what friends described at the time as a ‘last-ditch attempt’ to save their seven-year marriage.
‘I think there were a few people who sensed something was up when they moved to Vanuatu,’ a friend told Daily Mail Australia in 2018.
‘The sea change was basically a last-ditch attempt to make things work, but it wasn’t to be unfortunately.’
Steve famously quit the Today show in 2016 to work on his marriage, before returning to the network in 2017 as a weather presenter on Weekend Today.
He rejoined the main Today show for its 2019 relaunch, but was let go later in the year and replaced by Tim Davies.
In April, he joined Nine’s radio station Magic 1278, hosting a new breakfast program focusing on music from the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s.
