 Power, money and fine dining converge into a single space inside the Mandarin Oriental's CityZen. Service rules, with a staff that cares about the correct placement of cutlery, the presentation of courses, and the speed with which all of this is carried out. The menu comes in three parts: a regular six-course tasting menu, a six-course vegetarian tasting menu, and the prix-fixe three-course dinner menu. Another option for something a little more off-the-cuff: a bar tasting menu. Executive chef Eric Ziebold's signature dishes may include confit of moulard duck foie gras with cranberry stew and star anise scented pain perdu or mille feuille of Prime Midwestern beef and bone marrow bread pudding. Other options: pan-seared Maine diver scallops and phyllo-wrapped Marcho Farms veal sweetbreads. The banana split of roasted banana fritters with crème brûlée ice cream and mocha coulis may end the meal. Look to sommelier Andrew Myers for wine selection. His intense passion and easy spirit reject elitism. As it turns out, the dinner hour picks up at the socially chic hour of 10 p.m., when CityZen really begins to buzz.
