Awarded Best European / Mediterranean Casual Dining at the 2025 WA Gold Plate Awards, alba is Stories’ signature modern Italian offering – named after a small town in Northern Italy’s Piedmont wine region, known for its white truffles. Boasting a bright, light atmosphere, alba blends premium textures and décor for a contemporary aesthetic across unique indoor and alfresco dining experiences. The alba kitchen presents modern Italian dishes, showcasing a homely feeling, so typically synonymous with Italian culture.

Awarded Best New Restaurant at the 2025 WA Gold Plate Awards, KARLA, draws inspiration from the Noongar word for ‘fire’, creating a culinary haven, where modern Asian cuisine cooked over flames and coals takes centre stage. Headed up by Thai-born Head Chef Ben Pienprasop, KARLA’s culinary team uses only the freshest, locally sourced produce and native Australian ingredients, cooked to perfection over Asian charcoal grills and wood-fired ovens, adding a rich, charred essence to freshly crafted creations.
