Default Favorite appetizers from the Mediterranean shores?

I don't want to go into specifics, because one of the guests loves
surprises, and this forum is not all that secret, what with foodbanter, that
cycling website, and that Aussie site stealing and publishing our posts. :-)
I'll post a full report afterward.

In the meantime, what are some of your favorite Mediterranean appetizers?
Dolmas? Flatbread with dukkah? I think a paella might be a bit too big for
an appetizer, unless the number of guests increased substantially, but I'm
not ruling out pasta. I recently saw Mario Batali make little "sandwiches"
with pan-fried eggplant encasing slabs of cheese, and the whole thing topped
with chunky tomato sauce.

I'd not do tomato sauce. Tends to be overwhelming. Consider tzatziki or
maybe a cheese sauce.
