Egg coffee was among the food and drink items served to local and international journalists covering the second summit between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the US in Hanoi in 2019.
The Australian FM’s visit comes as the two countries are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the bilateral diplomatic relations and five years of strategic partnership this year./.
