We went to Barbican that day. Mainly because there's a special Monday price at the movie theatre in Barbican Center and they were playing "The Illusionist." We got the thickets the first thing we we got there which I was glad we did because we could only get the seats in the first row even it was 5 hours beforehand.
Luckily, Museum of London is close by to let us spend the time before the movie. It was actually a very nice museum, better than I though it would be. We spent approx. 4 hours in it and had to even grab sandwiches from Pret-A-Manger.
The movie was fantastic, an excellent follow-up of Sylvain Chomet's acclaimed last effort "The triplets of Belleville." It was also very meaningful because it was based on Jacques Tati's screenplay that never went on to the production state.
Steve suggested to go to Liverpool St. to get something to eat, but it was too late unfortunately. The Indian restaurants on Brick Lane seemed to close at the time. So we basically walked around and chose KFC when we were mostly out of choices.
