2 TS at Epcot too much?

[Minnie M6]

I am making my ADRs Tuesday morning (if I can stop changing them every few hours before then)

We are staying 7 days, and on arrival day we are eating at Beaches & Cream OOP- the rest of the days I plan to book one TS per day, either in the park we will be in or at a resort (no hoppers).

On our Epcot day, I am tossing around the idea of eating an early lunch at Coral Reef (11:30) and dinner at Garden Grill. Will this keep us from having enough time to enjoy the park? I think DS 9 and DD 7 will really enjoy Epcot and hate to drag them away from the fun twice to eat at a specific time....... I could pick one of the 2 and use the other TS on our free day.....

I would like to end the night with Illuminations- need to figure out where and when we need to be to watch before scheduling dinner ADR time if we do decide to eat @ Garden Grill.

That would be a lot to eat and waste a lot of time! I would do a CS lunch and a TS dinner! How about Coral Reef for dinner?

I think you'll be fine. We had lunch at Coral Reef we made it leisurely as we had been in the parks since 8am and were eating after 1pm. The second meal would ideally be around 6/7pm unless its possible to enjoy Illuminations from GG then you may want to do that and make it later.

Make the ADRs, if you decide not got to GG cancel as soon as you decide, grab a CS meal and enjoy the show.

I wouldn't do 2 TS in one day. You can count on about 2 hours for each meal. That's 4 hours just eating. Electric Umbrella is good CS, but my favorite is the orange chicken rice bowl at Lotus Blossom in China.

We are eating at two TS this year at Epcot. I do not think it is a waste of time, I like the break from the park and the heat and running everywhere. We are doing Mexico for lunch and Japan for dinner on one day and France and Norway on the other. I schedule our lunch around 1pm and our dinners around 7pm. We are leaving the parks to relax back at our hotel, so it is a unwind, before we unwind. (Except when we scheduled earlier for parades and such).

We're doing 2 TS on one of our Epcot days - Coral Reef for lunch for the whole gang and then Marrakesh for just DH and I for dinner. It's a shame that most of the good park TS are at Epcot. I wish they could spread them out a bit

I think that if you do an early lunch and a later dinner, you should be fine. My only concern would be that you may not have enough time to fully explore the park if you're eating 2 TS...If you don't have park hoppers and don't plan to return to Epcot, I may change my plans. We always reserve two days for Epcot during our trips.
