A special meal at a senior center demonstrates that food can offer moments of connection and memory for people with dementia.

Jake Broder, an actor and a playwright, met Michael, a man in his seventies with dementia, at the Bayview Hunters Point Adult Day Health Center in southeastern San Francisco about two years ago. Broder, who was a fellow at the Global Brain Health Institute (GBHI), which had commissioned his play, Unravelling, was spending a few hours every week at Bayview speaking with people who went to the center about their favorite foods from childhood through adulthood.
