Is there really a Southfork ? And can you visit it ?

Thanks in advance for your help.
The two most authentic with locals that I have found are:

nuevo leon. in farmers branch
try the goat stew.
this is a Mexican double store front, serving Mexican, not Tex-Mexici
Dallas has a very large local Mexican population

and
Indya Fusion at 7300 N MacArthur in los colanis.
try the goat stew.
there is a large SE asian population in dallas.

If for some reason you end up in Plano, try
Zanders House.
Viet Namaese.

all are very inexpensive(by washington dc standards)
the first two are close to the airport.
