Tater Salad

Every now and then - not often - I find something that pleases me. Such was the case when we joined our daughter and family for dinner one night at the "club." In our compound or whatever it’s called, there is a club house that offers "fine dinning." The meals I’ve had there heretofore haven’t always been four star. But, this time it was worth the two minute drive.

They featured a fish and shrimp buffet with salad bar and veggies. And, one of the items on the salad bar was potato salad - tater salad, if you speak Texan. It was made with mustard. That’s the secret ingredient to good tater salad. Most places either use mayo or a combination with mustard. My taste buds tell me that putting mayonnaise in potato anything is like putting catsup on chili.

I think the last time I had real potato salad was longer that I can remember. While this missive may sound trivial, you just need to know that somewhere there is still someone left that can make tater salad.

My compliments to the chef.
