Vegetarian or steak gumbo, or clam chowder I believe, in a breadbowl at Royal Street Veranda. I can only speak for the veggie gumbo, but it's delicious.
October '07 menu from French Market shows:
Sourdough Soup Boule
Choice of creamy clam chowder or soup of the day, severed in a bread boule
$8.69
I assume "boule" is French for bowl...
But I've never been to French Market so I don't know if it's table or counter...
You asked about DL, but I wanted to give the extra info (that you might know) that DCA's Pacific Wharf Cafe has a vegetarian chili in a breadbowl (delicious) as well as a clam chowder as well, oh, well, there are several, here:
