In a small bowl, whisk together the grated ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and olive oil until well combined to create the ginger dressing.
Thinly slice the green onion and set it aside for garnish.
Pour the ginger dressing over the halved cherry tomatoes and gently toss until all the tomatoes are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the tomatoes for garnish.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature, and enjoy!
