@Soup Kitchen International was a ...:
- Is it defunct? Later on in the article the present tense is used though.

- I was going to post the same question. Is it an is or a was? --Kiand 01:53, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
I have Al Yeganah's autograph! (Actually, my friend gave it to me, and it might be a fake.) JaredW! 16:18, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
I once saw an episode of Seinfeld which was about a soup place with a fierce owner! Sounds like this one!!! BaHaReep 02:18, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- This is who the Seinfeld episode is based on, genius. It has always said it in the article.
Yeah, I bet the Nazi's had a "no N-word" policy as well... 172.191.244.80 01:11, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Merger Proposal
I didn't put the merger tag on the Al Yeganeh article, but I can't think of any reason not to merge. Seems like a no-brainer, really -- I can't imagine that article being significantly expanded outside of the context of his Soup Kitchens. I'll put this page on my watchlist and if nobody comments to the contrary for a few days, I'll merge the content. --WikkiTikkiTavi 04:44, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Update and Reorganization
Since the original restaurant is now closed, I changed the tense in the lead sentence back to "was." After reading both the Soup Kitchen International and Original Soup Man websites carefully, it seems clear that the original location is -- alas -- defunct, and Al Yeganeh is devoting his energy on franchising and online product sales under the Original Soup Man brand. I also trimmed the famous "rules" to what can be documented on his websites. If anyone has a source for the rules I deleted, by all means restore them. Other than that, I added a couple of specific website links for sources and rearranged the paragraphs for better flow. I am not happy with leaving in the line about what supposedly happened if you broke the rules - it's unsourced and kinda weasel-like. But, it's also an important part of the place's mythology, so perhaps someone can improve it. --WikkiTikkiTavi 05:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
