Food Review: Liberty Cafe's Breadbowl Potato and Bacon Soup

I've been in Vandalia the past couple of days.  At first I must say I thought it was a frontage road town alongside the interstate, but then the nice people at Miller Funeral directed me to the Baptist Children's Academy, and low and behold!  Downtown Vandalia appeared out of nowhere!  Smack dab in the middle of downtown are a few shops with "Liberty" as their central theme; a coin trader, coffee and ice cream shop, and sandwich shop.  They are brand new to the area and owned by a veteran helicopter pilot of the Vietnam War named Tony.  After trying a deliscious Chocolate and Caramel Cappuccino yesterday and making a vow to return today for lunch, I decided on their Breadbowl Potato and Bacon Soup.  (For those of you actually reading my blogs, the picture was taken after I ate about half of it)  
The bowl was filled to overflowing with the thickest, creamiest soup I've ever tasted, and the flavor was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Service added to the experience with a "waiter" bringing the order out to the table and calmly checking to make sure everything was to my liking...even checking on refills!  Keep in mind this is just a sandwich shop, but I felt like I had been seated at a 5 star restaurant! 
I wish I could describe every detail, but it is one dish best experienced personally. (also, keep in mind I am not much of a soup kinda guy) 

All in all I give this dish 10 out of 10 spoonfulls of delisciousness! High end quality, for a low end price!  I only paid around $6 for everything!
