Talula's ready to go national

Talula's Table in Kennett Square, arguably the toughest table in the United States, is getting more national press than owners Aimee Olexy and Bryan Sikora can throw a spatula at.

Franz Lidz's story on Portfolio.com last month went viral and was picked up on AOL, MSNBC and Bloomberg.

NPR read it and now Alex Chadwick will run an on-the-scene feature on his April 22 "Day to Day" show, which airs on WHYY (90.9) at 1 p.m.

I also hear that New York Times Magazine has a feature up for May 18; the photog was out last week.

Olexy says reservations for the market's lone dinner table are "nuttier" than ever. The price just went up to $90 a head. Olexy adds that it probably will be $95 this time next year.

The table is booked fairly solidly a full year out, and they've opened a table in the kitchen for a more casual setting -- same food.

Res tip: Olexy says that they keep a couple Mondays a month open.
