A new Sicilian-inspired restaurant called Pomelia (website, facebook, instagram) opened for business in Brunswick on Tuesday.
Owners Tony and Chelsea Bickford are serving a menu (see below) of appetizers and salads, house made pastas, sandwiches, focaccia-style pizza, and a variety of chicken and shrimp-based dishes. The beverage menu includes cocktails and spritzes, wines from Italy, draft beer and a set of nonalcoholic drinks like the St Agrestis Phony Negroni (above) and an espresso tonic made with spiced orange simple syrup.
Shown above are: the Lacinato Kale Salad, Charred Cauliflower (with fennel, almonds, capers, golden raisins, pickled onions, Calabrian chili aioli), Spicy Ragu de Salsiccia with orecchiette pasta, Marsala Porcini with Busiata pasta, and a Cannoli topped with pistachio and chocolate. Dessert cocktails, digestifs and coffee from Swift River in Raymond are offered with dessert.
Pomelia is located at 18 Station Ave, and will be open Tuesday through Saturday, 11 am – 2 pm, 4 – 9 pm.
