Writing on the Road

My name is Layne Mosler, and I'm an American-born writer and editor based in Berlin, Germany.

I cover food, travel, and human interest stories. You can read many of them at taxigourmet.com, and in my upcoming book, Driving Hungry (Vintage, 2014).
If you ever find yourself on the corner of Torstrasse and Prenzlauer Allee in Berlin, you might miss this marker in front of the high-end club now known as the SoHo House. Before this was a hip corner, it was a dark corner - first a Jewish department store, then a department store overtaken by the Nazis, then a strategy center and an archive for the East German Socialist Unity Party.
