What have most people found to be the appropriate request here - are we talking about things they already have in the honor bar, or is this above and beyond that... I mean my favorite beverage at the end of the workday is a good single malt scotch, but I doubt that is what they are looking for... right?
Ask for pretty much anything. I have my profile set to bottle of riesling, pretzels, grapes and proscuitto/charcuterie. Sometimes I change them around to get some candy or chips. You can even name brands if you want for the snacks. I've gotten the bottle of wine at all properties except the Argonaut and have always gotten at least two of the snack items. I know somewhere in this thread there has been discussion of liquor and it's hard to come by. But I'm willing to bet if you ask for it you might be able to get a pint or at least a few minis. If they have the minis in the mini-bar, I don't see why they can't give you a few for one of your amenities.
There is obviously a budget attached and I'm sure if you stay there more often or paid more for your room they will be apt to give you more.
