Caught a video of the cast & Larry David getting together, going thru numerous clips of the 9 seasons. One thing that jumped out was the Soup Nazi character was not an actor & he ended up owning a chain of 9+ soup restaurants. He got pissed...no reason given.....at Jason Alexander & kicked him out of his real kitchen. Loved Jerry. For Seinfeld fans well worth watching.

To be clear the guy who played the soup nazi character on seinfeld was an actor, but the real life guy who the soup nazi is based on owned many restaurants.

quote:

According to writer Spike Feresten, Jerry Seinfeld and several members of the production team went to Soup Kitchen International for lunch weeks after "The Soup Nazi" aired, despite Feresten warning Seinfeld that Yeganeh was now well aware of the episode and was not pleased with the attention it had brought him. Upon recognizing Seinfeld, Yeganeh "did a triple take" and then went into a profanity-filled rant about how the show had "ruined" his business, demanding an apology. Seinfeld allegedly gave what Feresten describes as "the most sarcastic apology I've ever seen anyone give", upon which Yeganeh ejected them from the restaurant, shouting "No soup for you!" in the process.
