New York City’s most famous purveyor of soup, made famous after he inspired Jerry Seinfeld’s “Soup Nazi” character on the popular TV show, reopened his original Manhattan stall yesterday on West 56th near 8th Ave. But the original soup nazi, Al Yeganeh did not show up for the celebrations.
Yeganeh - who calls himself “The Original SoupMan”, detests the “Soup Nazi” character” - despite it no-doubt being good for business (after the original location closed in 2004, he opened another 22 shops and served up his soups online) and banned Jerry Seinfeld from his stall after the infamous episode aired in November 1995.
One of the better, if not greatest Seinfeld episodes, Soup Nazi has got us wistfully reminiscing back on one of the great NYC shows - even if it was actually filmed on a sound stage in LA.
