Maybe they do exist, but they weren't in the neighbourhood where we spent our time. There were a couple of Mongolian Hot Pot restaurants, where I treated my family and colleagues to lunch. We were amazed at the amount of pigeon stomachs that were being dished out on those plates. Do they really have so many pigeons to slaughter for food? I'll look out for them next time I travel that a'ways.
