Sophia Hoffman has been a Berliner for more than ten years, but her path to becoming such a well regarded vegan chef and food activist was not a straightforward one. She has published three books to date, and her most recent, Zero Waste Küche, or Zero Waste Kitchen, focuses on how to approach food and cooking in the most sustainable way possible. Sophia met with LOLA Editor Dan Cole to talk about her journey, including the high, the lows and the challenges of running a business in Berlin’s food scene.
