| - Monte Carlo is surprisingly one of the hotels that I frequent often on the Strip, probably because I love the hotels on this side of the Strip (Cosmo/Aria/Mandarin/NYNY? Yesssss please)
I typically go to the Starbucks located right by Pretzeland but one day I noticed how so many people would stop by and buy a pretzel that I got jealous and wanted to try it out too!
Food-wise, no complaints here! I was able to try the pepperoni poppers, pepperoni pretzel, cinnamon pretzel, and their lemonade. The pretzels were just as expected- warm, oily (in a good way), and so tasty while the lemonade was super sweet.
Service-wise was where it was weird. While waiting in line, the lady in front of me was taking to the cashier for a pretty long time. The cashier was very much engaged in their conversation. What I thought was interesting was when it was my turn at the counter, it seems that all the life left her. I tried to be nice but it was pointless. The conversation was very stoic. When ordering my drink, she asked me if I wanted the regular or the large. Right when I picked the regular size, she took it back and said they only have one size available... (?!?!) Then why offer the option?
Weird experience but maybe I'll come back the next time I'm craving pretzels on the Strip!
