Crew members also use top-quality, flavor-maximizing espresso machines to make handcrafted drinks to order. &nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Increased Energy Efficiency:<\/strong>&nbsp;Next Gen restaurants are designed to meet DD Green Achievement\u2122 specifications. Stores that achieve DD Green Achievement status are built with sustainable and efficient elements like LED lighting, high-efficiency mechanical equipment, low-flow faucets, and more. DD Green Achievement restaurants are performing better than designed.
