Getting your player ready...

Do you like it when things get steamy? Then you’re not alone. We got an overwhelming response after asking readers to nominate their favorite ramen spots in the metro area.

In the end, we picked 32 contestants for our annual March food bracket competition, based partly on those suggestions and partly on our own love for this much-loved hot noodle dish.

Now, itap your turn again. As people all over the United States begin filling out their March Madness college basketball brackets, we’re asking you to vote for your favorite among these ramen purveyors, and help narrow it down to the Sweet Sixteen.

To vote, go to denverpost.com/2024/02/14/best-ramen-denver-bracket. Voting in this first round is open now through 9 a.m. on Monday, March 4. The next round begins Wednesday, March 6.

Please remember to play fairly as we continue to vote. We’ll do our part to monitor each round to make sure the voting isn’t being spammed. Also, we hope that you’ll use this competition as a guide to discovering some new ramen spots near you.

Without further ado … .
