You picked some real nice places but I think you have to many TS and way to much food, alot of it is going to be wasted. Don't forget that is alot of wasted time in the parks, I like one TS each day and the rest just CS or grab and go eats. I did that a few years ago and had a TS for breakfast lunch and dinner and what a waste of money on that plan. Good luck no matter what you choose but those resturants you picked are good

 

[MassJester]

Sage advice and good points.

As for time away from the parks, well, our travel through the parks these days is much more casual then it once was. We go for our favortite attractions, and anything that might be new or updated, but otherwise we keep our day at a very relaxed pace. Anything we don't catch this trip we will catch the next.

Too much food? Yes, yes it is.

How'd we do?

You did a fantastic job! I dont think its too much..if you feel it is, just grab a snack rather than a full counter service.

Excellent restaurants, times, locations. (I just saw someones ressies that were all over the place. 3 TS per day, all at different parks/resorts on the same day etc..!!! Nice choice going for the breakfasts and the signatures!!)

Enjoy!!

 

[Boardwalk Tigger]

Nice selections BUT WAY WAY TOO MUCH FOOD! You are going to feel sick. Are you on a package? I would skip the counterservice entrees and cancel either a lunch or breakfast for each day. Pick your favorite places and save the rest for your next trip. Enjoy!

 

[ChefaStepha]

I actually disagree with some of the people above me, because I think you have the right amount of food planned. As long as you don't have one ADR right after the other, I wouldn't worry about it. I'm curious about one thing though... do you have a package? Because if you don't, you may want to consider adding one! You have a lot of reservations booked! The Deluxe Dining Plan seems good for you!

BTW - I'll be in EPCOT NYE too!

 

[MassJester]

I'll look at the packages--we haven't managed that well in the past but perhaps it's worth a look again.

As for the quantity of food...well...let's just say this won't be our first experience dining at WDW
