Baba with his chickens in Kosovo

From Kosovo to America

Born from
Baba.

A restaurant dream carried across generations—and finally brought to life by family.

01

The dream · Kosovo

Where it started.

Babs Hot Chicken was created by M2O Group founders and brothers Leo, Pep and Jim Osmanollaj as a tribute to their grandfather, Baba. He spent his life raising chickens in Kosovo and dreamed of opening a restaurant of his own.

The first Babs.

On February 26, 2024, that dream became real in Audubon, Pennsylvania. Baba traveled to America and proudly cut the ribbon himself—a full-circle moment for the whole family.

The legacy grows.

That September, Babs opened near the University of Delaware. Every sandwich, tender and meal carries the same commitment to bold flavor, hard work and genuine hospitality.

“Baba’s dream became our family’s mission.”
