Adhesive depends on what tiles you choose, your tile supplier should be able to provide you advice on what materials are suitable for the tiles they sell you.
Under no circumstance seal the plaster with PVA before you tile, there are specialist primers for this very thing if it's required. More detailed information is available on either of the following sites:-

I post under the name Mudster on both of those sites.0
