A couple of Fridays ago, I had the privilege of spending a few hours in the kitchen with Bryan Sikora as he prepared a private dinner at Talula's Table, the new Kennett Square, Pa., gourmet shop he runs with his wife Aimee Olexy and partner Claire Shears.
Sikora and Olexy formerly ran Django, their outstanding Philly BYO that earned a four bell (excellent) rating from Philadelphia Inquirer critic Craig LaBan. The couple now hosts private dinners in the shop at a rustic farmhouse table. An eight-course meal is $85, not counting tax or gratuity. You bring the wine. It's an amazing experience, kind of like booking your own restaurant for the night. I want to get a group together and do this soon. Here's my story from Sunday's paper. Thanks to host Andy Carota for letting me and photographer Bill Bretzger spy on his dinner party.
