Chow and May Dragon catered many of Norris’s private events at his home, as well as his successful charity events. One of May Dragon’s most notable customers was Chuck Norris, who frequented the restaurant often during his stay in Dallas while filming Walker, Texas Ranger. Customers leave saying “See you tomorrow” or “see you next week” and have affectionately nicknamed May Dragon “Joe’s Place.”

Joe is usually there to greet you and makes a point to know all of his customers. When you walk into May Dragon at 4848 Belt Line at Inwood in Addison, you quickly notice the attention to detail. With an interior designed by four architects, the restaurant consists of small dining areas that encompass an intimate dining experience surrounded by exquisite artwork and a courteous and attentive staff. In a vacant strip mall with only one resident, Joe opened May Dragon on July 21,1986.

Joe was passing through Addison one day and saw the perfect location for his fledgling idea. Living the American Dream, Chow immigrated to the United States in 1979 to attend school in Durant, Oklahoma, and to eventually shape the way we look at Chinese cuisine. Sincerity is the word that comes to mind when you meet Joe Chow.
