Hey, Ike -- I'm both Eastern European AND the restaurant reviewer and I had no clue as to what "blind pigeons' are, so I looked it up on Google. Turns out it's just stuffed cabbage rolls "Americanized" from one of the Eastern European names. We just called them "stuffed cabbage rolls" at home! ;-)
Here's the link to a recipe:
