So do they just put the whole pigeon in a blender until it’s puréed?

Nah the pigeon is cooked in a pan along with this really thick and savory herbal sauce

Chef looked at shit on a shingle and said they could make it shittier.

Looks like chicken mole. Hope to try it sometime (maybe at a more simple restaurant).

For something as common as “poultry in sauce” it sure looks like an industrial accident.

Tried pigeon in Chicago's Chinatown. It was the gamiest thing I have ever tasted. I normally like gamiey meat but this was too much.

Waiter, why did someone splatter diarrhea all over my dish?

[-] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Pigeon is pretty good, only had it once though.

You shouldn't eat rock doves they are very dirty birds and you can get pretty sick.
