I can't remember how I stumbled upon him....but his style and brash nature quickly drew me to him (albeit, I'm not sure if I would like him if he kicked me out of his restaurant lol).

 

His cookbook is  an interesting read and his documentary is good as well (if you like quirky, that is).

Sorry, but that's incorrect. Ali Yeganeh was the inspiration for the Soup Nazi character. Wikipedia's entry.

I just had to check and we watched the documentary in 2011.  Since then, the phrase, "I like killing flies" has become our mantra at this time of years when the flies are looking for nooks and crannies in the house to spend the winter in.
