This more recent reply implies that you have not (or at least not extensively)... for there is nothing unusual in your story.

Except, perhaps, for the irony of an American traveling to someone else's country, expecting them to cater to what he expects beverages to be (with anything less being poor service)... and then calling them "provincial" - all while coming from a country that thinks that there is such a thing as a 20 oz cappuccino (served all day long).

I recommend more travel... and ordering whatever the local closest to you has ordered.
