The Peak at Tahquitz Pines has a new Restaurant Manager, Matt Eker. Eker says he has managed fine dining restaurants in the San Diego area for over 20 years and now lives in Hemet. Asked what kind of changes he may bring, he said there would be a new menu within a month and has a predilection for seafood and vegetarian options.

The Peak will still be hosting events like their Line Dancing Night and Mariachi Night. Eker said that the Idyllwild International Festival of Cinema was expecting 250 attendees for the weekend screenings in their upstairs ballroom. “I am excited, everything is new to me, I like the challenge, and I am excited to work with my team here. We’re looking forward to great things, especially for summertime. We have exciting things planned.”
