Cultural Tip
In France, "c'est quoi" is a very colloquial way to ask "what is..." and is common among friends or in informal online forums. In a shop or with a service representative, you would more likely hear "Quel est le forfait le moins cher ?". Also, French superlatives use "le/la/les + moins/plus + adjective"; remember that the adjective must agree in gender and number with the noun it describes.
