Thoughts: In 2012, the Japanese イオン株式会社 AEON CO Ltd purchased the ailing Malaysian chain of French retailer 家樂福 Carrefour, comprising 26 stores and later renamed all of the stores names as AEON BiG. The Grocer, used to be crowded with market-goers especially in the weekends BUT recent years have seen many small grocers mushroomed as shop lots in all of Subang area shop lots serving as neighborhood grocery stores. However, looks like SS16's AEON Big survived all that and even made it through the Pandemic and recently revamped its ground floor food court area to include the following eateries:
Dilacatesen - Fried items (chicken, curry puff etc), Rice & noodle packs
D'Laksa - Asam Laksa, Fruit Rojak
Sushi - Ready-made Sushi varieties as well as Bento
KFC
Station Kopitiam - Malay foods
Chicken Rice shop
Aida D'Care - Thai food
TeaLive
Fruit stall
La Boheme - Bread, Pastry, Sweets
Today's Asam Laksa for lunch; drenched with savory and at the same time sweet and salty 蝦膏酱 shrimp paste (and you can ask for more), the 叻沙麵 Laksa noodle bowl is generously topped with the usual sliced 洋蔥 onions, 高良姜 lengkuas (or I think Galangal ginger), 生菜 lettuce, 菠蘿 pineapples and chunks of 鯖魚塊 mackeral fish in the 經典酸亞參羅望子湯 classic sour Asam tamarind broth; bringing out that slightly sweet salty, but tangy, sour and spicy taste all at the same time at rm$9.90 per bowl (in Singapore D'Laksa charges around SGD$3.50 per bowl)! 
The new kiosk at SS16 AEON Big also offers 水果羅 Fruit Rojak, 魚丸 Fish Ball and 龍蝦丸 Lobster Balls. D'Laksa kiosk is located @ Row 8/9/10 Aeon big grocery counter exit area in SS16's AEON Big. 
For the love of 亞参叻沙 Asam Laksa, a 檳城美食愛好者 Penangite food enthusiast established D' Laksa in 2012. AND by the end of 2022, D'Laksa has 60+ outlets around Malaysia and Singapore with 55 outlets in Malaysia at 10 different states (except Perlis, Sabah and Pahang, I think) as well as 7 outlets in Singapore. Subang Jaya alone offers 2 D'Laksa kiosk: one in Empire Shopping Gallery and this one in AEOB Big, both in SS16. AND not too far from SS16, there is also another D'Laksa kiosk located in Bandar Sunway's Sunway Pyramid Mall!
The exact origin of the 亞参叻沙 Asam Laksa unknown, but it is believed that it has originated in the coastal areas of Malaysia among the local fishermen who assembled the dish out of available  ingredients. Coupled with the unique Laksa style noodle in a broth that is made with fresh 鯖魚 mackerel fish from the sea plus its main distinguishing feature is the Asam or 羅望子 Tamarind as well ag 蝦膏酱 shrimp paste (or the Hookies called it "Hay-Koe"), which gives the soup a sour, spicy and appetizing taste. Through history, the dish evolved into 亞参叻沙 Assam Laksa (or Asam Laksa) that we know today. This dish is especially popular in Penang Island and some even goes to say that the Penang Assam Laksa is the creation of the 峇峇娘惹 Peranakan Chinese-Malay Culture. The popularity and 旨味 umami of the dish precedes is appearance AS the 檳城亞参叻沙 Penang's Asam laksa did earned a proud spot of #7 place in "The World's 50 Best Foods" by CNN in 2020, and even beating Thailand's 冬陰功 Tom Yum Koong!

Thoughts: The exact origin of the dish is unknown, but it is believed that 亞參叻沙 Asam Laksa has originated in the 馬來西亞沿海地區 coastal areas of Malaysia among the local fishermen who assembled the dish out of available ingredients. Through history, the dish evolved into 亞參叻沙 Asam laksa that we know today. On its very core, 亞參叻沙 Assam laksa is a traditional Malaysian 魚肉酸湯麵 fish-based sour noodle soup. It is the one of the numerous varieties of laksa, popular noodle soups widespread throughout Southeast Asia. The dish consists of 瀨粉 Rice noodles (Lai fun), shredded Fish (usually 沙丁魚 sardine), and 蔬菜片 sliced vegetables, most commonly 黃瓜 Cucumber, 洋蔥 Onion, 生菜 Lettuce, and of course the strong sour flavored soup comes from lots of 蝦膏醬 Shrimp Paste. 
This little kiosk called "D’Laksa" in SS16's Empire Shopping Gallery and a few more outlets in Klang Valley was found by a food enthusiast born in Penang who has a genuine love towards 檳城 Penang "亞參叻沙 Asam Laksa". Thus, the company has been established since 2012, offering not just their signature 亞參叻沙 Asam Laksa dish, but also 檳城水果羅惹 Penang Fruit Rojak, 亞參魚丸 Asam Fish Ball, and 亞參龍蝦丸 Asam Lobster Ball; from rm$5.90 to rm$7.90 per bowl.

Parking: Free in-door parking
Thoughts: The Cafe officially opened somewhere after Chinese New Year in February but struck by MCO and re-opened in June. Located in one of the private buildings along PJ's Jalan 13/6 (may be 500m from Jaya One Shopping Mall), and next to Pacific 63 Soho. And it is in the same building as the "Petaling Jaya Evangelical Free Church"! It is free private parking here within is facility (maybe around a doze or more parking lots), just let the guard know you are in for the Cafe, and a quick mySejahtera and Temperature scan will do. 
The Cafe looks spacious (with 2 floors), refreshing to be greeted with lots of greens and flower pots immediately after its entrance. Good service by a young team of staff, from finding a table, getting an order to serving, and offering assistance for free glass of water. For lunch, it is the rm$16 Chef recommended "阿叁叻沙 Asam Laksa". Was forewarned that it will be slightly sour, with thick and Asamlicious broth with the usual pineapples, onions, cucumber, sardine, and "lai fun", garnished also with some mint leaf and chili; surprisingly not bad (just a little bit expensive). Instead of a hot cuppa, where Latte is also the Cafe's signature; but I ordered the "咖啡阿芙佳朵包 Signature Affogato" (also its signature). With 3 scoops of ice cream, topped with a cookie as well as cookie crumbs, and a freshly brewed shot of 浓咖啡 Espresso on the side. So satisfying!
The Cafe offers 6 mains (from rm$16 - rm$29), and I think the "泡菜炒饭配蜂蜜酱油鸡翅 Kimchi Fried Rice with Honey Soy Wings" looks interesting! The 蜂蜜酱油鸡翅 Soy Wings are also offered as Ala-Carte from its Starters section which also includes Fries (法式炸薯条或地瓜薯条 French or Sweet Potato) and soup of the day. Beverages are Coffee, Tea, 鸡尾酒 Mocktails, or 手沖咖啡 Pour over Coffee. And yes, cakes and bakes as well; including 馬卡龍 Macarons and the Cafe's signature "烧焦的芝士蛋糕 Burn Cheese Cake".
