Get the best of both worlds at Kun Fusion

Chow

There’s nothing else quite like Kun Fusion Grill in Eugene, and that’s the point, says owner Shawn Werner.  Take Kun Fusion’s rice bowl, for example, resplendent with savory chicken, crunchy veggies and mounds of rice topped with a fried egg.

I dream of a bounty of crops erupting from the seeds planted by a new generation of land stewards. Continue reading →
