I absolutely have a sweet tooth, but I also am not inclined to eat the savory options often presented in lounges. Soups and slices of salmon aren't really my thing (unless the salmon is on a bagel or eggs royale), and I'm not a fan of buffet meat and most vegetables. As I usually go out to eat an early dinner, a lounge can often provide a good source of dessert.

Regardless, I've been to plenty of properties that have subpar lounge offerings - I've been to far fewer that seemed to double as the site of a haircut.
