I seem to recall hearing/reading somewhere that Seinfeld's "Soup Nazi" episode (season 7, ep. 6) was based on a real place and/or character......anybody know if that's the case, and if so, how "exaggerated" the portrayal was compared to the real place/person (or if it was simply a complete fabrication) ?? Also, anybody ever been to an establishment that was similarly "quirky" (or out of the norm in a way that was/is different from the way typical 'mainstream' eateries tend to be run?) ?? SAVE FERRIS

It is a real place - I've been there a couple times, although not while the actual Soup Man was around, so I can't attest to the man's character. But he sounds like a genuine ass and his portrayal probably not too exaggerated. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Original_Soupman Soup was pretty good, but not so good I'd put up with being yelled at by the proprietor. It's pretty hard to fuck up soup.
