NORTHPORT, New York -- The Northport Sweet Shop has been in this quaint fishing village on Long Island's North Shore since 1929, cradled in the caring hands of the Panarites family since day one.
"We use quality chocolate," said Panarites."Don't sacrifice quality, and I always followed that concept," said Panarites about the philosophy he carries on from his dad, George. The shop was founded by George Panarites, a Greek immigrant who schooled himself in the confectionery and ice cream trade in Astoria, Queens before setting up shop in Northport just as the Great Depression began.
