Judging from the lines on opening day, denizens of the Maine Mall area of South Portland greeted the arrival of Pom’s Thai Restaurant (209 Western Ave. Crossing; 207-347-3000) a few months back with something akin to glee.
An oasis in a desert of chains and fast food, the restaurant is an offshoot of owner Pom Boobphachati’s Thai Taste restaurant on the other side of the city. Both spots are known for their use of fresh ingredients and a nuanced approach to seasoning – a far cry from what you’ll find at the food court.
