Pom's Thai Kitchen is a small Thai food business at 37 St Heliers Crescent, Aranui, Christchurch, started in 2018 by Pom, a chef from Chiang Mai who trained in Thailand and has worked in hotels and restaurants in Bangkok, Singapore and New Zealand. It began when friends asked for the Thai sausage, sai ua, that Pom made for family, and it has since grown to a wider range of Thai dishes. The business sells online and offers wholesale prices to restaurants and shops. It also does catering for small events and dinner parties, and supplies school fetes and markets.
Orders can be picked up from the depot, or from a trailer at markets listed on the website. Pick-up needs an arranged time. Delivery is charged by distance from the depot: $5 within 5 kilometres, $10 within 10 kilometres, $20 within 20 kilometres and $30 within 30 kilometres, and anything further by special arrangement. A garlic pork roll is listed at $8.00 incl. GST as at 2026. For someone in Aranui or east Christchurch who wants homemade Thai dishes, or a Thai menu for a school fete or a dinner, the business works across those needs.
