Who the hell calls it a French press, I've never heard anyone call it that.

I never knew there was a different name for it. The cafetière is a new one on me, and I did French in high school. Guess we weren't talking about coffee much, though apparently french fries came up enough for me to remember pommes frites (they probably don't fry apples much over there).

Pommes de terre frites or patates frites

Or just 'frites'

Most commonly, yes, just frites. Was just saying that pommes frites wasn't exactly right
