What's the hottest table in the area, and possibly the country? It's the "farm table" set up in the back of Talula's Table, a gourmet grocery/cafe in Kennett Square. It seats full parties of 8 to 12, who pay $85 a head for Bryan Sikora's 8-course tasting menus and Aimee Olexy's cheese board.
Just after The Inquirer's Craig LaBan raved back in mid-October, it's been impossible to get a reservation. The owners closed the books at July 31, 2008. But on Jan. 2 -- Wednesday morning at 7 a.m., to be precise -- the book will be reopened from Aug. 1, 2008, to Jan. 2, 2009, as The Inquirer's Michael Klein explains in a story in Sunday's Inquirer (12/30).
