What was the London restaurant in the 1970s called where you paid what you thought the meal was worth?
There's a story on AFP about a restaurant called "Little Bay", and AFP is saying this is a "novel idea". But it's not a new idea - that other restaurant did it first, as far as I know, and there's also an Indian restaurant in New York today which does the same thing.
Googling is useless - does anybody remember the name of this 1970s restaurant? It was very popular.
I don't think it was the same one, but well done for finding Just Around The Corner. This one sold up around 1979, and I think was more centrally located.

I'm not sure if this is the one you're thinking of, but there used to be a restaurant on Finchley Road called 'Just Around The Corner' that let people pay what they thought was fair.
"...it is the only restaurant where YOU decide how much the meal is worth and pay accordingly. No fuss about bills and sharing, you just work it out by yourself and pay at the end. In the 14 years the restaurant has been running the landlord claims he never had a disagreement over a bill. As a result, the service is superb (the waitress has been there for 3 years!)"
