UK - London - Pizza Hut and K-Series telephone box

A night scene in central London's Strand, a busy road leading to Trafalgar Square is home to many restaurants like the American chain Pizza Express. The company logo is in large letters on a broad red stripe late-night diners who are sitting at their tables, on view to a person who has walked past, blurred as a silhouette in the street. And right outside is a K-Series pay phone box kiosk, prominently situated on the pavement for members of the public to use. With its solid cast-iron frames, the K-series kiosks were designed in 1936 by the iconic designer Giles Gilbert Scott. The first Pizza Hut restaurant opened in 1958 by Frank and Dan Carney in Wichita, Kansas.
