The Red Carnation Hotel Collection Introduces
Beatrice Tollman’s Memoir, “A Life in Food”

The book is a celebration of life and travel, and is filled with recipes from the heart, many of which have been passed down through the family, or discovered during far-flung adventures. Bea Tollman’s kitchen expertise and experiences as a traveler, mother, and hotelier are showcased in a fascinating collection of personal reminiscences and favorite recipes.

The book also tells the story of how The Red Carnation Hotel Collection was established, and reveals the inspiration for some of the most popular dishes enjoyed at its 15 hotels around the world. Many of the signature dishes, which guests come back for time and again, are those which Bea Tollman has collected, refined, and perfected – and that she personally teaches to each chef in every property.

It is thanks to Bea Tollman’s passion and belief in unparalleled levels of service that makes The Red Carnation Hotel Collection one of the most renowned hotel companies in the world. “My driving passion is to make every stay memorable for every single guest, to offer great value for money, and to make them feel truly welcomed and special. I believe having this at the heart of everything we do is what has led to the success of the company,” she says.

A Life in Food is available for sale at each of the Red Carnation hotels, retailing at $39, as well as on www.amazon.co.uk . Note that the cost of the book is subject to monetary fluctuations. In the United States, all proceeds go to the Safe Harbor Sanctuary and Animal Hospital. In South Africa, all proceeds are donated to The Amy Biehl Foundation. In the UK, all proceeds go to the Starlight Children’s Foundation and The Tick Tock Club (Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity).
