Dakos or ntakos (Greek: ντάκος), also known as koukouvagia or koukouvayia (κουκουβάγια, "owl") (from koulouki + psomi, pup + bread, allegedly the bread given to puppies), is a meze consisting of a slice of soaked dried bread or barley rusk (paximadi) topped with chopped tomatoes and crumbled feta or mizithra cheese, and flavored with herbs such as dried oregano. Olives and pepper can also be added.
The dish is similar to the Catalan pa amb tomàquet and the Italian frisella.[1][2]
