unless you have need of the extraneous div for other purposes, simply  
apply the class to the ul itself. it'll keep the markup leaner.

assuming you use <ul class='menu'>, your css would be

ul.menu {
*styles here*
}
..menu li {
*styles here*
}

and so on..

alternatively, look to see if there's already an identifying element  
that can be used to hook the styles onto - for instance, if this is  
part of a div with an id of header, and you have no plans to add  
additional lists to the header,  you can use that ID to identify the  
list. The concept of the cascade can be tough to grasp at times, but  
it most definitely is worth the effort to learn.
