Right now we have an ADR at Garden Grill at 11 for lunch. I went ahead and made an ADR for 6:35 that evening for the Princess Storybook dinner. Wondering if this is too much? We wanted dd to see the Princesses and thought this would be the easiest way. She loves to dress up and we thought she could dress up for dinner. Too much sitting down to eat? Any thoughts?
 
The one or two times during my last trip in 05 over Thanksgiving that I had two TS meals in one day, usually a buffet and a sit-down dinner for lunch, I felt VERY full.

I am pooh-sized, eat more than the average person, and sometimes the buffet was for breakfast, and I still felt somewhat full at the TS for dinner.

In short, there is a lot of time between your meals. If you are a light eater, it probably will be okay. If you aren't a light eater, two TS meals in one day can be overwhelming.
 
Sun Aug 20 we also have 2 TS - lunch 1230 at Teppenyaki and dinner 715 Chef de France. We're finishing up DP credits. I have the feeling that after Chef dinner we'll be going back to the BCV to drop off leftovers!
 
We do two TS meals a day every day during our trip. On our very first trip in '93 we did 3 TS meals a day and thought we were going to explode! We usually do one between 11-12 and the other around 6. One day we're doing a character breakfast at 9:30 a.m. and doing HDDR at 9:30 p.m. that night leaving lots of time for snacking! :thumbsup2 We never feel like we're wasting time that could be spent in the parks because we've been there a few times and we usually go for 7-8 days. If it was a shorter trip we probably wouldn't do so many TS meals.
 

Since your times for dining are spread pretty far apart, I'd say it's fine. The only drawback I've found to having two TS's on the same day is that TS dining is more time consuming, taking up valuable park time.
 
we always do two TS in a day as well and love it. we feel full but LOVE to eat! it is part of the experience for us. just like everyone said, as long as the meals are spaced out you should be fine!
 
Dh and I have two scheduled this NOV. We have Garden Grill at 11:10 and them Rosa & Crown at 8pm (hoping for a seat to watch Illuminations). Go for it, but don't snack to hard in between! Your times should be far enough apart. In general though, we usually do only one TS a day.
 
The only time we can manage 2 TS meals in a day is when one is a breakfast (in our case probably character and a late-ish dinner) - we've tried to do lunch and dinner before but ended up too stuffed to eat much at dinner - but everyone is different. I would add we visit usually in the hot summer months, so maybe the heat plays a part.
