Here's how Jaya Grocer has become a "grocerant" (grocer + restaurant).
Choose meat and seafood from the supermarket, then bring it all to the counter of their in-house eatery, El Fresco, and pay for it to be cooked (a surcharge of 12 ringgit is imposed per item). Grab a seat at the dining area while waiting for the food to be sent to you.
