Soup Man

Soup Man

Soup Kitchen International is a well-known soup restaurant at 259-A West 55th Street (between Broadway and 8th Avenue), in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, run by Ali "Al" Yeganeh. It is part of the Original Soup Man (OTCBB: SOUP) chain of stores, which is also run by Yeganeh.

The 55th Street location was closed in 2004, with the windows soaped over. Yeganeh, however, kept the lease on the shop while he looked to expand into a broader market. This led to the formation of the Original Soup Man chain and eventually led to the reopening of Soup Kitchen International, which now bears the name "Original Soup Man" like all of Yeganeh's other restaurants.

Famous quotes containing the words soup and/or man:

    Food probably has a very great influence on the condition of men. Wine exercises a more visible influence, food does it more slowly but perhaps just as surely. Who knows if a well-prepared soup was not responsible for the pneumatic pump or a poor one for a war?
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    When a man keeps beating me to the draw mentally, he begins to get glamorous.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
