}}Ken Kostick (June 1, 1953 – April 21, 2011)[1] was a Canadian chef and television and radio personality,[2] best known for co-hosting the television series What's for Dinner? with Mary Jo Eustace.[3]

Early life

Kostick was born in Winnipeg on June 1, 1953 and was raised in the North End, Winnipeg area. He also attended St. John's High School.[4]

Broadcasting career

He cohosted the Life Network series What's for Dinner? with Eustace in the 1990s and early 2000s. The show was noted particularly for Kostick and Eustace's comedic banter, focusing in part on Kostick's public ambiguity at the time about whether or not he was gay.

He also wrote several bestselling cookbooks and put out an eponymous line of cooking products.[3]

Kostick and Eustace debuted on Toronto's new LGBT-focused radio station Proud FM in 2007 as cohosts of the morning show.[5] Eustace left the show in June 2008, following which Kostick continued to host alone until leaving the station in December of that year. The duo then reteamed for the new W Network series He Said, She Said with Ken and Mary Jo.

Death

On 21 April 2011, Kostick died in Toronto of complications of pancreatitis.[1] He was 57 years old.
