Title: Ladle for serving soup

Abstract: A substantially hemispherical bowl is provided with a handle. An inner boat-shaped receptacle, which has a generally V-shaped cross-section and tapers toward each of its ends, is supported by the bowl in a generally inverted position relative to the bowl, with one side of the boat-shaped receptacle generally conforming to and slightly spaced from the inner surface of the bowl at one side of the bowl. The space between said side of the boat-shaped receptacle and the inner surface of the bowl forms a pouring passage extending from an inlet slot between the edge of such receptacle and the inner surface of the bowl to a discharge slot between the edge of the bowl and the bottom of such receptacle.
