Fusion Cuisine isn't just a restaurant; it’s a culinary map of our lives. My name is Cris Barajas, and my obsession with flavor led me from the familiar shores of Holland, Michigan, to the far reaches of China. For over a decade, I lived for the sizzle of the wok and the complexity of ancient spices.
It was there that I met my wife, Zhou Xue Li. Together, we spent ten years as culinary explorers, diving deep into the regional secrets of her homeland—from the numbing heat of Sichuan peppercorns to the delicate, savory balance of traditional Cantonese kitchens. In 2026, we brought those authentic techniques back home to Holland, ready to spark a new kind of food conversation.
The heart of our kitchen is a true meeting of the minds. I’ve partnered with Executive Chef Jesus Corona to create a space where my deep-rooted expertise in Chinese flavors is shared and blended with his elite knowledge of Mexican and American cuisine. Together, we’ve blended Xue Li’s heritage with a deep respect for the bold, sun-drenched profiles of the West. Imagine a kitchen where traditional soy-braising meets slow-roasted chilies and the hearty comfort of American classics. We are obsessed with the details—the perfect sear, the freshest ingredients, and the unexpected harmony of three world-class cuisines coming together on one plate.
At Fusion Cuisine, we invite you to move past the ordinary. Join us for a meal that honors tradition while celebrating the art of the remix. Come taste the world, right here at home.
