I don't think there is any extra room in the A320 exit rows - whenever I have sat there I certainly haven't noticed it. Personally I always go for row 5 - row 4 is the economy bulkhead, which doesn't have enough footroom for my tastes, so row 5 is the most forward row with proper legroom. Only downside is that you can be uncomfortably close to the kids that often end up in row 4, since that's the bassinet position on the A320.

I've never experienced the soups. In fact I've never experienced any hot food at all in the international QC's. Every time I've been (which is admittedly not all that frequently, but probably twice a year for the last few years) the food has been feeble in the extreme, and the wine disappointing. The domestic QCs are better, but still poor compared to NZ's domestic food options (which of course have to compensate for no food on the plane).
