The name says it all, a fantastic potato salad from a top Atlanta restaurant, The Vortex Bar and Grill on Peachtree Avenue. I agree with the reviewer that the cooking time does seem like a long time however, this recipe is from the Vortex Restaurant, and this was the way it appeared in the San Antonio Express News. Therefore each chef should be aware of this and make your own adjustments.

This was an easy, fast recipe to use, I did add three hard boiled eggs though. I would highly recommend making and trying it for your self!

Probably the best potato salad I have made! I changed a couple of things though. I used russet potatoes and cider vinegar instead of red wine. I also used celery salt instead of seasoning salt and i did add a squirt of mustard. Next time I may try with miracle whip instead of mayo. Really good! Thanks for sharing Miss Annie!

I was eager to try this because I wanted a creamy potato salad that had lots of flavor but without mustard. This has turned into our new favorite mayo-based potato salad with a couple of modifications: I reduced the sour cream to 1 cup, and the pepper to 1 1/2 tsp. I also cook the potatoes in my pressure cooker instead of following the directions listed here. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!
