Fry the bacon in pieces in a large pot. When cooked through, place on paper towels.
Leave the fat and drop the onion, garlic, carrot and celery with the fresh thyme for 6-7 minutes.
Add the butter and melt. Add the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes over medium heat, stirring to prevent sticking to the bottom. Gradually add the milk while stirring. Add the corn, saving 1/2 cup for decoration.
Simmer for 10 minutes and add the potatoes.
Adjust the seasoning and serve in bowls, using the bacon and leftover corn as a garnish with chopped green onions. Enjoy with a glass of La Côte Chardonnay.
