More About the Author
Zora has been in the kitchen since she was 3, and has the bacon-fat burns to prove it. But she really taught herself to cook in her early 20s during grad school, and that skill has proved far more useful than anything else she learned at the time.
When Zora moved to New York City (from New Mexico via New Jersey, Indiana, the Netherlands and Egypt) in 1998, she chose where to live based on the 24-hour produce stands in lovely Astoria, Queens. Inspired by her borough's diverse foodstuffs, she started the supper club Roving Gastronome in 2001, and later developed Sunday Night Dinner with Tamara Reynolds, which was the inspiration for their cookbook, Forking Fantastic!: Put the Party back in Dinner Party.
In her work as a guidebook author for Rough Guides, Moon and Lonely Planet, Zora also picks up new flavors on the road. She pays special attention to street carts, produce markets, and local culinary specialties, and the finds wind up in her guidebooks, as well as on her home table.
Zora writes about her cooking and travels on the blog Roving Gastronome (www.rovinggastronome.com).

This review is from: The Rough Guide to Cancun and the Yucatan: Includes the Maya Sites of Tabasco & Chiapas (Rough Guides Yucatan) (Paperback)
My friend and I used this book on our vacation and it was absolutely perfect! It has just the right amount of detail on the sites. Typically we like to just duck into restaurants we see, but when we were on Cozumel, we really wanted a good lunch. We chose a restaurant from this book that we wouldn't have even SEEN and it was perfect!
There were details that were in this guide that were not in the tours, so it was a perfect compliment. Thanks you again Rough Guide! You never disappoint.

This review is from: The Rough Guide to Cancun and the Yucatan: Includes the Maya Sites of Tabasco & Chiapas (Rough Guides Yucatan) (Paperback)
As usual, Zora O'Neill's travel writing has me mentally packing my suitcase and planning an itinerary! Alas, I'm not leaving til February. I've already spent alot of time in the Yucatan and thanks to the earlier editions of this guide each of my trips has been perfect in every way. The book is not only well written ~ the format makes it easy to use. The maps and accompanying directions are accurate. It's obvious the writer has spent a lot of time there herself and has experienced what she's writing about.
