Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, 1 tsp of the vinegar, the remaining shallot, a generous drizzle of olive oil, remaining spices, and S&P.
In a separate salad bowl, tear the lettuce leaves, and cut radishes into ½-inch wedges. In a small bowl, combine the remaining vinegar, 3 tbsp. olive oil and S&P. Add the lettuce, and radishes; and toss well. In a small bowl, combine the mayo, and remaining garlic with S&P.
Grill the hamburger buns with a little bit of oil, or toast until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
Divide the buns between your plates and spread with the aioli. Top each bun with a patty and the bruschetta. Serve the salad on the side.
