Location: 35 Clayfield Road, Burghfield Comon, Reading, RG7 3HF Tel: 0845 202 1722 Open: Mon-Sat noon-2pm, 5.30pm-11pm, Sun noon-2pm, 5.30pm-10pm It is easy to understand why Bahgecha has such a loyal customer-base in the village of Burghfield. With more than 100 freshly-cooked dishes to choose from, the intimate Bangladeshi-style restaurant caters for all tastes. Contemporary decoration is kept minimalist, with the cream walls and wooden bar dressed-up by fresh flowers on every table. The service from the immaculately-presented waiters retains traditional standards: attentive yet not intrusive. The food is also a delight. Start with the popular king prawn purée or the recommended murgh patibula - chicken and spices rolled together for the perfect combination - after crunching through your popadoms. For main, manager Hussain Choudhury picked out the king prawn special as a dish to be experienced. You will not be disappointed. Three artistically-presented giant prawns, cooked with onions and spices, which are ground in-house in chef's secret sauce, is of the highest quality. With a desirable pause between each course, little will go to waste, and the peshwari nan is perfect for any remaining sauce. The Sunday eat-as-much-as-you-like buffet is also extremely popular, offering customers the same quality dishes for a set price of £10.50. All the usual beers are available, Kingfisher and company, in the well-stocked bar, while an extensive wine list is expertly selected and rotated every six months. Since opening in 2002, Bahgecha have never felt the need to advertise due to positive feedback and praise around the village. I recommend you find out what the locals are all talking about.
