Happy anniversary!
The bay is lovely and can highly reccomend it, especially if the weather is good! Everything is close together so it's easy to spend an afternoon there or the whole day.

I used to work in the Assembly, you can go to there and have a look about, even if you're not into politics is a very impressive building. There is also the Pierhead building which is part of it too and very interesting.
The Millenium Centre is good, often they have free performances in the foyer.
If you're a Dr who/torchwood fan there is an exhibition in the red dragon centre.
They do lovely boat trips around the bay and the chioce of food is fab (personally like demiros opposite Millenium centre and Cadwaladers for ice cream). my favourite nights out are cocktails in the evening down there, if you're really lucky you may see a few celebrities hanging around!
City centre is good for shopping with a new modern centre recently opened. Cardiff castle is brilliant and easy to get to,
Castle Coch is out of town towards the valleys but beautiful, looks like a proper fairy castle. There's also the museum not far from the castle, set in cathays park wich is a nice place to visit.
Not sure about the steakhouse, the only one I can think of is Taurus on St Mary Street, which is near Mill lane but that has closed now. There is a nice portugese restaurant near the Hard rock cafe.
St Fagans is one of our favourite places to go inthe holidays with the kids but you need a whole day there really, if you do go, the bara brith from the bakery is very good! It's just off of Junction 33 of the M4.
There is a city sightseeing bus
