My Little Story
Hey! I’m Sylvie, the person behind Holy Mitt. I’ve been drawn to the kitchen since I was a teenager. I learned a lot about traditional Lebanese cooking from my mom, who is an amazing cook. I would research, read cookbooks, watch cooking shows, then experiment in the kitchen. I was obsessed with creating dishes that are mine, and not someone else’s recipe.
After I graduated from high school, I went to university, majored in Architecture and worked at a design firm. I forgot about cooking for a while, because I barely had time to do anything. But whenever I had spare time, I’d elope to the kitchen to cook a nice meal. University was hard to get through, but I finally graduated and went off to the world to get a 9 to 5 Architecture job. I was never happy as an employee, it felt like my creativity was being crushed.
I was always depressed and I went through a hard time. Then I decided to quit my job, work as a freelance architect, find something I love, and pursue it.
