Mrs. Andrea Bors Somogyi, wife of the Hungarian Ambassador, hosted the
spouses of the Ambassadors of European Union member states at a traditional
monthly luncheon. Upon arrival, the wives and husbands found surprise
messages on the Christmas tree. Five of them picked messages selecting them
to participate at the preparation of the event's meal under the guidance of
Chef Lázár Kovács.
