La Mesure.
A six-course dinner in which each plate activates a specific brain mechanism — and every guest leaves with a measurable picture of their neurological baseline.
The concept
A dinner that takes your measure.
Ninety percent of your serotonin is made in your gut. Your microbiome sends electrochemical signals to your brainstem along the vagus nerve. The food on your plate tonight is not decoration — it is data.
Each course targets a specific brain pathway, backed by peer-reviewed evidence. Before the first plate arrives, your neurological baseline is established. After the last course, it is returned to you — as a precise, personalised account of where you are, and where your food choices are taking you.
Three acts
The evening, in three movements.
Act 1 · Arrival
Baseline
Before the first course arrives, your starting point is established. A brief, validated protocol — completed over drinks — maps your gut health, dietary baseline, and neurological readiness. The dinner begins before the food arrives.
Act 2 · The dinner
Immersion
Six brain-targeted courses, each with a table card that names the mechanism being activated. Between courses, your dietary data is updated in real time. The science is not presented — it is experienced, course by course.
Act 3 · After dinner
Synthesis
All measurements converge into a single personal report — generated in the room. Your gut health profile, your neurological risk factors, your priority food actions. Not a diagnosis. A precise starting point for everything that follows.
The menu
Six courses. Six brain mechanisms.
Each dish is designed around a specific neurological target. The science is served alongside the food.

For whom
La Mesure is held for those who want to know.
La Mesure is available as a private event hosted within clinics, retreats, and medical residences — for guests who already understand the value of precision health, and want to experience what food can reveal.
Each edition is limited to 8–16 guests. Every seat is by invitation or direct enquiry. La Mesure is not a public dinner.
"The dinner is over. The data is not."
The team
The people behind the science.
Andra Bria
Neuroscientist & Concept Originator
Brain science graduate and neuroscientist. Conceived Feed Your Brain and designed the scientific architecture behind La Mesure — including its measurement protocol and personalised reporting system.
Caique Tizzi
Artistic Director & Chef
Berlin-based artist and chef. His practice creates multisensorial narratives through ingredients, cooking methods, and historical research. The dinner is his. The science is the argument it carries.
