Australian steak experts Wooloomooloo Group is going all out for NYE this year, offering festive arrangements across its family of restaurants. We suggest making a move early to secure a table at Wooloomooloo Prime or Wooloomooloo Steakhouse in Tsim Sha Tsui East for those unmissable Victoria Harbour views – perfect for enjoying the fireworks.

On December 31, Wooloomooloo Prime will present a four-course Festive Brunch ($398 per person, with add-on free-flow options available) for diners to tuck into dishes like grilled beef tenderloin, crab cake, hazelnut cheesecake, and a 200-day sirloin with pan-seared foie gras, among others. Come nighttime, the New Year’s Eve Dinner ($1,288 per person for first seating, $1,488 per person for second seating to see the NYE fireworks; both with additional wine pairings available) will treat guests to lobster bisque, bone marrow with onion bacon marmalade, duck wellington, wagyu sirloin, slow-cooked beef cheek, sea bass en paupiette, red wine pear, and more as part of a four-course meal.
