It means Sho=Pine, Chiku=Bamboo, Bai=Plum in Japanese and is often used for 3 levels of rank with the Pine being the best and Plum being the lowest (but it's still good).

So if you go to a Sushi restaurant they may have 3 choices of lunch sets Sho, Chiki, Bai and the Sho (Pine) will be the most extravagant (and expensive) one while Bai (Plum) will be the smallest set.
