Combine the shrimp, fennel, mayonnaise, red onion, dill, capers and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Toss to mix. (This can be made a day ahead and refrigerated.) Toss in the tomatoes.

For the Basic Bruschetta: Heat a charcoal or gas grill or stove-top grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill one side of the bread until light grill marks appear, 2 to 4 minutes.
