The pair, who were best friends on the show, looked happy to be in each others' company as they enjoyed a bite and a glass of wine in the popular suburb - with Kate even taking to Instagram to document the day.
Alongside a picture of the pair beaming, she wrote: 'Who would’ve thought this kid from Campbelltown would still be having lunch with this boy from Roma?
'We did again today and it was food for the soul as per usual.'
The pair appeared to be joined by Ray's wife Gilly, who he married in 2010.
During the outing, the chatty trio looked cool and casual as they battled the cool winter breeze outside the restaurant.

'I can tell you wholeheartedly that those scenes on the beach with Sally and Mr. Stewart saying goodbye to each other were Kate and Ray,' Kate revealed.
In another segment, Ray was asked if it was 'tough to see [Kate] go' after watching her grow up on the show.
The veteran actor became tearful and was left momentarily speechless.
After composing himself, Ray admitted it was difficult to say goodbye to Kate after working with her for 20 years, adding that she was a 'big part' of the show.

Kate also revealed in the documentary that she and Ray had their own private farewell after filming their final scenes together.
'Ray said that he's so proud of me, and that he values the fact that I'm not a little girl anymore,' she fondly remembered.
'He's seen me grow and mature, and [told me] he's very happy to call me his friend. It was worth working 20 years for, I reckon.'
