Rusks with tomato and soft feta

This dish became very popular during my stay at Milia Traditional Settlement, in the mountains of Crete. I can still here the waiter Zoran describing the dish in detail to me. Amusing as it was, he and the rest of the staff at Milia were extremely helpful to us all. This is perfect as an appetiser or as a meal in itself.
