French fries are a weakness of mine.  I wish I could be as disciplined as my friends who choose a side salad over fries with their sandwich or burger… but I just can’t! And when they are labeled “frites” on the menu, forget it — they somehow become even more irresistable!

Serving “cones” of fries at parties is not a new thing. Caterers often fold parchment or other paper into a cone and present the fries in the cones. That’s easy enough to do at home, as well, but now it’s even easier…

I spotted these wire containers on Crate & Barrel’s site recently… just in time for summer BBQs! I am pretty sure the Truffled French Fries featured on Epicurious would fit very well in one of these!

Bon Appetit!
