Jonny Awsum and the Bridge

jonny awsumHeadliner Jonny Awsum has won the prestigious and well-deserved Magners Comedy Award and the Comedy Café Best New Act. He is one of the best Baby Blue Banana acts that I have seen. His musical, feel-good comedy set built an immediate rapport with the audience without the usual boring crap about where we are from. The evening of sincere, positive laughter was much appreciated. After the show we were hungry, but unsure if any kitchens werehid bisztro still open at 11:30pm. Having heard good things about the Hid Bisztro (17 tram station) at the foot of Margit Bridge on the Buda side, we decided to try that. We were told that their kitchen was closed for the evening, so we ordered a couple beers. A couple minutes later, the waitress amazingly came back and said that they would be happy to make us a pizza still if that was acceptable. The spinach-Gorgonzola pizza went down fine.
