Do you think that they all knew how to make what you wanted a year ago and then forgot?

This appears to fall more into the "silly American tourist" bucket. If you order a martini in France - you get sweet vermouth (often with a choice of colors) with lemon over ice. No gin or vodka.

Why not just order a Big Mac and fries?
