Well, I hope it all turns out well for you. You are lucky to have a GF that is adventurous enough to at least "TRY" various kinds of food. Of course if she goes home and tells her Mum, and Dad, that she ate a wild animal, and then tells them it was a fox, she might be scarce for awhile......
of course you could always, have a plate of "Bangers, and beans", and some chips, and cold beer ready, just in case, it turns out a little like eating an old well used tennis shoe. In taste and texture.
Just be sure to add some granulated garlic, and if you have it over there, some Cajun seasoning. Those two items are a must for me!
If you don't have either of those, just add some crushed fresh garlic cloves, about ten minutes before you take out the food. That way, the garlic will not cook it's flavor out. I think it is going to turn out quite nice. Pigeon by the way is quite tasty. Like a big morning dove, that we hunt over here. We used to go down to a local dairy, and shoot the pigeons, that were eating the calf feed. Only problem, is that the pigeons had mites. But we just picked the feathers off, as soon as we picked them up. Ok, pictures of the GF, and the meal in presentation, and her face as she takes the first bite.
