Pigeon Pie is quite popular in Game of Thrones.
I haven’t had pigeon, but I love duck.

Mmmmm......delicious memories of the stewed squabs my grandmother made. The fantastic gravy still makes my mouth water after not tasting it in 65 years.
To: Tax-chick
If you’ve ever eaten Cornish Game Hen, or quail, then you have the right idea of it’s taste...............

I bet that you don't know that at one time, chicken was VERY expensive and to have roast chicken, for Sunday dinner, here in the USA, meant that you were well off. :-)
Now, it is reasonably "cheap" and once very CHEAP foods, such as short ribs a flank steak are expensive.

He puts the PIG in pigeon.

Nope. My mother would not accept quail after she broke a tooth on a piece of shot in a turkey.
