   EARLIER in the week, a smaller group of us was entertained at a gourmet dinner hosted by a baby food company in the Drake Room on 56th st. at Park ave.  This is a spot that has become famous among New Yorkers for its buffet luncheons, as well as for such dishes as steak Diane.  This was made for us by Nino, the maitre d'hotel, who created the dish and named it for his small daughter.
