    The below will prepend string.Empty to the SelectList (or IEnumerable) specified in the ViewData[‘Menu’] item. The select will have id and name MenuID.

    <%= Html.DropDownList( 'MenuID',                       (IEnumerable<SelectListItem>)ViewData['Menu'],                       string.Empty ) %>
