Greek salad (Greek: χωριάτικη σαλάτα [xorˈjatiki saˈlata] "rustic salad" or θερινή σαλάτα [θeriˈni saˈlata] "summer salad") is a salad in Greek cuisine. Greek salad is made with pieces of tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, onion, feta cheese, and olives (usually Kalamata olives), typically seasoned with salt and oregano, and dressed with olive oil. Common additions include the pickled leaves, buds or berries of capers (especially in the Dodecanese islands).

"Bond heard some noise from the kitchen. Soon Hera came back with a bottle of Taittinger, two glasses and two covered plates.
You open the bottle, and I put the plates ready, Hera said.
Bond rolled out of the bed and took the bottle. He opened it by popping the bottle cap to the ceiling.
He poured champagne into the glasses while Hera was setting the plates full of Greek salad, bread and cheese."
